Vegetative insecticidal protein enhancing the toxicity of Bacillus thuringiensis subsp kurstaki against Spodoptera exigua

AIMS: The objective of this work was to enhance the insecticidal activity or widen the pesticidal spectrum of a commercial Bacillus thuringiensis strain YBT1520. METHODS AND RESULTS: A vegetative insecticidal protein gene vip3Aa7, under the control of its native promoter and cry3A promoter, was subcloned into B. thuringiensis acrystalliferous BMB171 to generate BMB8901 and BMBvip respectively. It was found that the amount of Vip3Aa7 protein produced by BMBvip was 3.2-fold more than that produced by BMB8901. Therefore, the vip3Aa7 gene under the control of cry3A promoter was transformed into strain YBT1520. The toxicity of the resulting strain BMB218V against Spodoptera exigua was 10-fold more than that of YBT1520, and that the toxicity of BMB218V against Helicoverpa armigera retained the same level as that of strain YBT1520. CONCLUSIONS: Strain YBT1520 obtained high toxicity against S. exigua after it was transformed and expressed the foreign vip3Aa7 gene. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: Commercial B. thuringiensis strain YBT1520 has high toxicity against H. armigera and Plutella xylostella, but almost no activity against S. exigua, which is a major crop pest in China. This work provides a new strategy for widening the activity spectrum of B. thuringiensis against agriculture pests.     

Improved production of insecticidal proteins in Bacillus thuringiensis strains carrying an additional cry1C gene in its chromosome

A cryIC gene, whose product is active against Spodoptera exigua, was introduced into wildtype Bacillus thuringiensis kurstaki strain YBT1520 using an integrative and thermosensitive vector, pBMB-FLCE, which was developed based on B. thuringiensis transposon Tn4430 harboring a tnpI-tnpA gene. With the mediation of TnpI-TnpA, the cry1C gene was integrated into the chromosome of the host strain. To prevent secondary integration, the integrative vector was eliminated by moving recombinant cultures to 46 degrees C for generations. Two integrative recombinant B. thuringiensis strains BMB1520-E and BMB1520-F were obtained. In recombinant BMB1520-F, the cry1C gene was expressed stably at a significant level and did not reduce the expression of endogenous crystal protein genes. Bioassay results indicated that BMB1520-E and BMB1520-F showed a higher level of activity against S. exigua third-instar larvae than did their parent strains, in addition to the high toxicity to Plutella xylostella third-instar later larvae.     

Broadening the insecticidal spectrum of Lepidoptera-specific Bacillus thuringiensis strains by chromosomal integration of cry3A

A TnpI-TnpIA-mediated and thermosensitive recombination system was developed to construct genetically modified Bacillus thuringiensis strains encoding a crystal protein particularly active against Coleopteran species. Based on B. thuringiensis transposon Tn4430, an integrative vector, pBMB-R14E, was constructed, by which the cry3A delta-endotoxin gene highly toxic to Lepidoptera was delivered into a wildtype B. thuringiensis subsp. kurstaki strain YBT1520. The cry3A gene was integrated into the chromosome of the host strain. Then the integrative vector was eliminated by moving recombinant cultures to 46 degrees C. Two recombinant B. thuringiensis strains, BMB1520-S and BMB1520-T, were obtained. In recombinant strains, the cry3A gene was stably expressed in measurable amounts and did not reduce the expression of endogenous crystal protein genes. Bioassay results showed that BMB1520-S and BMB1520-T, in addition to the activity against lepidopteran Plutella xylostella third-instar larvae present in the parental strains, exhibited a high level of activity against coleopteran Rhyllodecta vulgatissima third-instar larvae, absent from the parental strains.     

Development and field performance of a broad-spectrum nonviable asporogenic recombinant strain of Bacillus thuringiensis with greater potency and UV resistance.

The main problems with Bacillus thuringiensis products for pest control are their often narrow activity spectrum, high sensitivity to UV degradation, and low cost effectiveness (high potency required). We constructed a sporulation-deficient SigK(-) B. thuringiensis strain that expressed a chimeric cry1C/Ab gene, the product of which had high activity against various lepidopteran pests, including Spodoptera littoralis (Egyptian cotton leaf worm) and Spodoptera exigua (lesser [beet] armyworm), which are not readily controlled by other Cry delta-endotoxins. The SigK(-) host strain carried the cry1Ac gene, the product of which is highly active against the larvae of the major pests Ostrinia nubilalis (European corn borer) and Heliothis virescens (tobacco budworm). This new strain had greater potency and a broader activity spectrum than the parent strain. The crystals produced by the asporogenic strain remained encapsulated within the cells, which protected them from UV degradation. The cry1C/Ab gene was introduced into the B. thuringiensis host via a site-specific recombination vector so that unwanted DNA was eliminated. Therefore, the final construct contained no sequences of non-B. thuringiensis origin. As the recombinant strain is a mutant blocked at late sporulation, it does not produce viable spores and therefore cannot compete with wild-type B. thuringiensis strains in the environment. It is thus a very safe biopesticide. In field trials, this new recombinant strain protected cabbage and broccoli against a pest complex under natural infestation conditions.

Construction and characterisation of an antifungal recombinant Bacillus thuringiensis with an expanded host spectrum

A novel antifungal Bacillus thuringiensis strain 19–22, ssp. kurstaki (H3a3b3c), was characterised. This strain included cry1Aa, cry1Ab, cry1Ac, and cry1D, which have high insecticidal activities against lepidopteran larvae other than Spodoptera exigua. To expand the host spectrum, a cry1E gene whose product is active against S. exigua was introduced into the isolate. The transformant successfully expressed the Cry1E protein without any loss of its original antifungal activities. These results indicate that this recombinant strain exhibits dual activities and may be used as an integrated control agent to control plant diseases and insect pests.
