Bacillus thuringiensis and their endophytic capabilities

The main characteristic of Bacillus thuringiensis is that during sporulation produces a parasporal inclusion formed by one or more proteinaceous bodies that exhibit insecticidal activity upon ingestion by susceptible larvae of different orders of insects. In addition, the crystals are composed of...
