The present invention relates to Bacillus thuringiensis genes, which encode proteins having activity against nematode pests cloned from strains PS80JJ1, PS158D5, PS167P, PS169E, PS177F1, PS177G, PS204G4, and PS204G6. The toxins are particularly active against Panagrellus redivivus. The DNA encoding the toxin can be transformed into various hosts such as plants to express the toxin. |
