ABSTRACT:
The subject invention concerns the use of Bacillus thuringiensis (B.t.) endotoxins to control hemipteran insect pests. Specifically exemplified is B.t. isolate PS123D1, and .delta.-endotoxins therefrom. These isolates and toxins can be administered to said pests, or to the environment of said pests, e.g. plants, to achieve control of the pests.
