Biology & Biotechnology | Gene encoding the insecticidal protein from specific strains of a naturally occurring soil bacterium called Bacillus thurigiensis or Bt, isolated and transferred to a range of crop plants including potato, corn and cotton to reduce dependence upon potentially environmentally damaging pesticides. There are more than 500 different strains of Bt, each of which is specifically toxic to a very limited range of insect species and does no harm to animals, birds, fish and beneficial insects.
