ABSTRACT:
The invention pertains to novel insecticidal compounds derived fromBacillus thuringiensisstrains. Nucleotide sequences encoding a Cry2Ae protein and truncated fragments thereof are provided. Further provided are recombinant hosts expressing such proteins, particularly plant cells, plants and seeds and methods of using the recombinant hosts for controlling insects, particularly Lepidoptera.
