ABSTRACT:
Methods and mutant Bacillus thuringiensis strains are provided for controlling lepidopteran insects. Sporogenic, crystalliferous mutant strains for B. thuringiensis having the identifying characteristics of NRRL B-18195, NRRL B-18196 and NRRL B-18197 are provided for use as biocontrol agents. Said strains have the ability to produce a bypyramidal crystal composed of toxic protein and require a leucine and valine containing nutrient medium for growth, sporulation and crystal production.
