Toxin-encoding nucleic acid fragments derived from a Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. israelensis gene

摘要

Novel nucleic acid fragments coding for insecticidal proteins, the insecticidal proteins encoded thereby, insecticidal compositions containing such proteins, and the use of these proteins in combatting insects, particularly mosquitoes, are described. Chimeric genes containing the novel nucleic acid fragments, and microorganisms, tissues, seeds, and plants incorporating the nucleic acid fragments are also discussed.
