摘要

PURPOSE: A microorganism Bacillus thuringiensis 656-3 isolated from the soil of mushroom houses and a composition for controlling harmful insects containing the same microorganism are provided, which microorganism produces endotoxin having improved insecticidal activity to harmful insects including Coboldia fuscipes and Lycoriella mali. CONSTITUTION: The microorganism Bacillus thuringiensis 656-3(KACC) is isolated from the soil of mushroom houses, wherein Bacillus thuringiensis 656-3(KACC) comprises the nucleotide sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO:1. The composition for controlling harmful insects contains Bacillus thuringiensis 656-3(KACC), or spores or endotoxin of Bacillus thuringiensis 656-3(KACC).
