ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a newly isolated Bacillus thuringiensis strain which exhibits insecticidal activity. The supernatant of cultures of this novel strain is also an effective insecticidal agents. Also included in the invention are the novel B. thuringiensis isolate, its supernatant and a solvent extract of the supernatant which are specifically active against corn rootworm but not against beet armyworm, nematodes or flies. These strains and supernatants may be used to treat plants infected with susceptible organisms.
