Publication number: 20220389444Abstract: Compositions and methods for conferring pesticidal activity to bacteria, plants, plant cells, tissues and seeds are provided. Compositions comprising a coding sequence for a toxin polypeptide are provided. The coding sequences can be used in DNA constructs or expression cassettes for transformation and expression in plants and bacteria. Compositions also comprise transformed bacteria, plants, plant cells, tissues, and seeds. In particular, isolated toxin nucleic acid molecules are provided. Additionally, amino acid sequences corresponding to the polynucleotides are encompassed, and antibodies specifically binding to those amino acid sequences. In particular, the present invention provides for isolated nucleic acid molecules comprising nucleotide sequences encoding the amino acid sequence shown in any of SEQ ID NO:1-40, 42, 43, 45-48, 50, 51, 52, 54, 56, 58-64, 66, or 67, or the nucleotide sequence set forth in any of SEQ ID NO:69-106, as well as variants and fragments thereof.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 9, 2022Publication date: December 8, 2022Inventors: Gabriel MILLER, Ethan DUNN, James DOROGHAZI, Duane LEHTINEN, Laura SCHOUTEN, Andrew DEBRECHT, Jonathan GIEBEL, Daniel VAKNIN, Xunhai ZHENG, Kathleen PITCHER
