Abstract
Bacillus thuringiensis produces insecticidal parasporal inclusions (crystal protein) used as a major ingredient of most microbial insecticides. Although many B. thuringiensis strains and their crystal proteins have been isolated and characterized, such findings have limitation of usefulness. For enhanced toxicity, fast effects, and the delay of resistance development, research on genetic manipulation of crystal genes and proteins by genetic engineering should be continued. (omitted)
