Abstract

Seven heterologous signal sequence are described for use with genes for insect controlling proteins, such that when the signal sequence and protein genes are inserted into an insect virus, that virus demonstrates an earlier onset of morbidity than a wild-type insect virus which lacks the gene for the insect controlling protein.
