Use of Bacillus thuringiensis toxins for the control of the cotton pest Earias insulana (Boisd.) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)

Article Abstract:

Thirteen of the most common lepidoteran-specific Cry proteins of Bacillus thuringiensis is tested for their efficacy against newly hatched larvae of two populations of the spiny bollworm, Earias insulana. It was observed that E. insulana is susceptible to Cry1Ab, Cry1Ac, Cry1Ba, Cry1Da, Cry1Ia, and Cry1Ac.

Interaction of Bacillus thuringiensis toxins with larval midgut binding sites of Helicoverpa armigera(lepidoptera: noctuidae)

Article Abstract:

Brush border membrane vesicles(BBMV) from four different H. armigera populations are tested to check the influence of the insect population on the binding site model. The inhibitory effect of selected sugars and lectins on Cry1Ab and Cry1Ac binding is determined.
