  • Publication number: 20240093225
    Abstract: The present invention relates to isolated and recombinant polynucleotides encoding polypeptides having insecticidal activity and to host cells comprising same. The invention further relates to the use of the insecticidal proteins and/or nucleic acid sequences encoding same for killing or inhibiting the development of insect pests as well as for conferring insect resistance to plants. The invention further provides compositions comprising the pesticidal polypeptides and/or polynucleotide encoding same and host cells, particularly bacterial cells, expressing the insecticidal polypeptides.
