PCR Detection of cry Genes in Local Bacillus Thuringiensis Isolates
Twelve local B. thuringiensis strains are used in the study, which previously isolated from the soil of seven governorates and characterized by their high toxicity against 2 instars larvae of cotton nd leafworm (Spodoptera littoralis). The PCR amplification analysis of the 12 Bt isolates revealed the presence of amplified fragments characteristic of five different cry genes. Results showed the ...
متن کاملRegulation of cry Gene Expression in Bacillus thuringiensis
Bacillus thuringiensis differs from the closely related Bacillus cereus group species by its ability to produce crystalline inclusions. The production of these crystals mainly results from the expression of the cry genes, from the stability of their transcripts and from the synthesis, accumulation and crystallization of large amounts of insecticidal Cry proteins. This process normally coincides...
متن کاملAdaptive Evolution of cry Genes in Bacillus thuringiensis: Implications for Their Specificity Determination
The cry gene family, produced during the late exponential phase of growth in Bacillus thuringiensis, is a large, still-growing family of homologous genes, in which each gene encodes a protein with strong specific activity against only one or a few insect species. Extensive studies are mostly focusing on the structural and functional relationships of Cry proteins, and have revealed several resid...
