Abstract
A plant cell transformed with all or part of a Bacillus thuringiensis gene coding for either a 130 or 132 kDa protoxin against Lepidoptera, preferably with a part of the gene coding just for the respective 62 or 60 kDa trypsin-digestion product of the protoxin. A plant, regenerated from the transformed cell, is resistant to Lepidoptera.
