Abstract

Two subjects have dominated the biopesticide literature over the past year. One concerns the use of engineered and natural baculovirus insecticides; the other concerns insect-specific bacterial toxins. The proceedings of a recent symposium on Bacillus thuringiensis and related bacterial toxins have been published. Soon to be reported are the successful field trials of an engineered baculovirus insecticide that encodes an insect-specific scorpion toxin.
