Insecticidal activity of Bacillus laterosporus.
The Bacillus laterosporus strains 921 and 615 were shown to have toxicity for larvae of the mosquitoes Aedes aegypti, Anopheles stephensi, and Culex pipiens. The larvicidal activity of B. laterosporus was associated with spores and crystalline inclusions. Purified B. laterosporus 615 crystals were highly toxic for Aedes aegypti and Anopheles stephensi.
متن کاملLarvicidal Activity of Bacillus laterosporus Against Mosquitoes
In present study Bacillus laterosporus isolated from a commercial formulation showed larvicidal activity against second instar larvae of Aedies aegypti, Anophles stephense and Culex qunquefasciatus. The % mortality without heat treatment was 37.34 against Anophles and 18.67 against Culex. The toxin was heat stable and its toxicity increased with inoculum size and incubation time. The study reve...
متن کاملThe Parasporal Body of Bacillus Laterosporus Laubach
On sporulation the slender vegetative rods swell and form larger spindle-shaped cells in which the spores are formed. When the spores mature they lie in a lateral position cradled in canoe-shaped parasporal bodies which are highly basophilic and can be differentiated from the surrounding vegetative cell cytoplasm with dilute basic dyes. On completion of sporulation the vegetative cell protoplas...
متن کاملEvolution of Bacillus thuringiensis Cry toxins insecticidal activity
Insecticidal Cry proteins produced by Bacillus thuringiensis are use worldwide in transgenic crops for efficient pest control. Among the family of Cry toxins, the three domain Cry family is the better characterized regarding their natural evolution leading to a large number of Cry proteins with similar structure, mode of action but different insect specificity. Also, this group is the better ch...
متن کاملMidgut bacteria required for Bacillus thuringiensis insecticidal activity.
Bacillus thuringiensis is the most widely applied biological insecticide and is used to manage insects that affect forestry and agriculture and transmit human and animal pathogens. This ubiquitous spore-forming bacterium kills insect larvae largely through the action of insecticidal crystal proteins and is commonly deployed as a direct bacterial spray. Moreover, plants engineered with the cry g...
