Publication number: 20250089712Abstract: Compositions and methods for controlling pests are provided. The methods involve transforming organisms with a nucleic acid sequence encoding an insecticidal protein. In particular, the nucleic acid sequences are useful for preparing plants and microorganisms that possess insecticidal activity. Thus, transformed bacteria, plants, plant cells, plant tissues and seeds are provided. Compositions are insecticidal nucleic acids and proteins of bacterial species. The sequences find use in the construction of expression vectors for subsequent transformation into organisms of interest including plants, as probes for the isolation of other homologous (or partially homologous) genes. The pesticidal proteins find use in controlling, inhibiting growth or killing Lepidopteran, Coleopteran, Dipteran, fungal, Hemipteran and nematode pest populations and for producing compositions with insecticidal activity.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 6, 2024Publication date: March 20, 2025Applicant: PIONEER HI-BRED INTERNATIONAL, INC.Inventors: JENNIFER KARA BARRY, HUA DONG, JAMES J ENGLISH, JACOB GILLIAM, KAI M HILLMAN, DANIEL JAMES THORPE, THOMAS CHAD WOLFE, NASSER YALPANI
