Abstract

Two new Bacillus thuringiensis strains, BTS02584B and BTS02584C, produce insecticidal components that are toxic to Coleoptera, more particularly toxic to Diabrotica spp. The strains themselves, their sporulated cultures, or their insecticidally effective components can be used as the active ingredient in an insecticidal composition for combatting Coleoptera, more specifically Diabrotica species.
