Bacillus thuringiensis toxins: an overview of their biocidal activity
Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) is a Gram positive, spore-forming bacterium that synthesizes parasporal crystalline inclusions containing Cry and Cyt proteins, some of which are toxic against a wide range of insect orders, ... -
Baculovirus expression and functional analysis of Vpa2 proteins from Bacillus thuringiensis
The mode of action underlying the insecticidal activity of the Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) binary pesticidal protein Vpa1/Vpa2 is uncertain. In this study, three recombinant baculoviruses were constructed using Bac-to-Bac ... -
Computational prediction of protein-coding gene and annotation of DNA sequences with agronomic interest in Pleurotus ostreatus (Oyster Mushroom)
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2006) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaPleurotus ostreatus, commonly known as oyster mushroom, is a commercially important edible fungus with interesting biotechnological properties. Quantitative trait loci (QTL) analyses are rare in fungi and little is known ... -
Draft genome sequence of Bacillus thuringiensis serovar tolworthi strain Na205-3, an isolate toxic for Helicoverpa armigera
We report here the complete annotated 6,510,053-bp draft genome sequence of Bacillus thuringiensis serovar tolworthi strain Na205-3, which is toxic for Helicoverpa armigera. This strain potentially contains nine insecticidal ... -
Draft genome sequence of Photorhabdus luminescens strain DSPV002N isolated from Santa Fe, Argentina
Here, we report the draft genome sequence of Photorhabdus luminescens strain DSPV002N, which consists of 177 contig sequences accounting for 5,518,143 bp, with a G+C content of 42.3% and 4,701 predicted protein-coding genes ... -
Draft genome sequences of two bacillus thuringiensis strains and characterization of a putative 41.9-kDa insecticidal toxin
In this work, we report the genome sequencing of two Bacillus thuringiensis strains using Illumina next-generation sequencing technology (NGS). Strain Hu4-2, toxic to many lepidopteran pest species and to some mosquitoes, ... -
Genetic breeding of edible mushrooms: from the genome to the production of new varieties of Pleurotus ostreatus
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2006) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaThe breeding of new varieties of industrially cultivated edible mushrooms must proceed in the framework defined by the breeding objectives, the biological characteristics of the material and the legal and cultural ... -
Molecular and insecticidal characterization of a novel cry-related protein from bacillus thuringiensis toxic against Myzus persicae
This study describes the insecticidal activity of a novel Bacillus thuringiensis Cry-related protein with a deduced 799 amino acid sequence (~89 kDa) and ~19% pairwise identity to the 95-kDa-aphidicidal protein (sequence ... -
The Vip3Ag4 insecticidal protoxin from bacillus thuringiensis adopts a tetrameric configuration that is maintained on proteolysis
The Vip3 proteins produced during vegetative growth by strains of the bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis show insecticidal activity against lepidopteran insects with a mechanism of action that may involve pore formation and ... -
Vip3C, a novel class of vegetative insecticidal proteins from Bacillus thuringiensis
Three vip3 genes were identified in two Bacillus thuringiensis Spanish collections. Sequence analysis revealed a novel Vip3 protein class (Vip3C). Preliminary bioassays of larvae from 10 different lepidopteran species ...
