Bacillus thuringiensis 苏云金杆菌
Introduction: Bacillus thuringiensis (B.t.) is a naturally-occurring soil bacterium that produces poisons which cause disease in insects. A number of insecticides are based on these toxins. B.t. is considered ideal for pest management because of its specificity to pests and because of its lack of toxicity to humans or the natural enemies of many crop pests. There are different strains of B.t., each with specific toxicity to particular types of insects: B.t. aizawai (B.t.a.) is used against wax moth larvae in honeycombs; B.t. israelensis (B.t.i.) is effective against mosquitoes, blackflies and some midges; B.t. kurstaki (B.t.k.) controls various types of lepidopterous insects, including the gypsy moth and cabbage looper. A new strain, B.t. san diego, has been found to be effective against certain beetle species and the boll weevil. In order to be effective, B.t. must be eaten by insects in the immature, feeding stage of development referred to as larvae. It is ineffective against adult insects. Monitoring the target insect population before application insures that insects are in the vulnerable larval stage. More than 150 insects, mostly lepidopterous larvae, are known to be susceptible in some way to B.t.

ENVIRONMENTAL FATE
Soil/Environment In clay loam of low nutrient status (pH 7.3, pF2, 25 ºC), insecticidal activity declined rapidly in 20 d due to deterioration of the crystals; at pF3, it declined slowly for 500 d; at higher nutrient status, there was a brief 10-fold increase of inoculum applied to soil. As a natural part of the ecosystem, it decays to complex and non-toxic organic compounds.
Usage: Bacillus thuringiensis Berliner subsp. kurstaki is a specific strain of the bacterial insecticide Bt selected for its control of Lepidopteran larvae and other vegetable and woodland pests.
Application: Mode of action Insecticide with stomach action. Following ingestion, the crystals of endotoxin are solubilised; the epithelial cells of the gut are damaged, insects stop feeding and eventually starve to death. B. thuringiensis subsp. kurstaki cultures produce spores and CryI and CryII or CryIII protein crystals. Death occurs in 1-4 days. Products made from this isolate generally have field activity of less than 7 days. Uses Used for control of lepidopterous larvae in agriculture, horticulture and forestry. Ecogen strain EG2424 is used for the control of Colorado potato beetle, Leptinotarsa decemlineata.
