ABSTRACT:
Lepidopteran insect resistant transformed potato plants are described. In particular, the transformation of potato plants with five to ten copies of a translational fusion encoding the 68 kD lepidopteran-specific toxin from Bacillus thuringiensis var. kurstaki HD-73 and neomycin phosphotransferase II is described. The transgenic potato plants were resistant to the tobacco hornworm, a lepidopteran insect which is susceptible to Bacillus thuringiensis var. kurstaki toxin.
