Abstract: N-Substituted sulfoximines are effective at controlling insects resistant to common insecticides.

Abstract: Synergistic pesticidal mixtures are provided.

Abstract: DIG-3 Cry toxins, polynucleotides encoding such toxins, and transgenic plants that produce such toxins are useful to control insect pests.

Abstract: The subject invention provides exciting new sources for surprising, new types of toxin complex (“TC”) proteins. The subject invention includes these new classes and types of TC proteins. The subject invention also includes polynucleotides that encode the subject proteins. The subject invention further provides vectors and cells comprising these polynucleotides. The subject invention also provides novel methods of controlling insects. The subject invention relates in part to the surprising discovery that new types of TC proteins can be obtained from a widely diverse phylogenetic spectrum of organisms including, most notably and surprisingly, eukaryotic fungus.

Abstract: The invention relates to isolated genes encoding Xenorhabdus toxin complex (TC) proteins, and transgenic plants and host cells expressing Xenorhabdus toxin complex (TC) proteins and having resistance to insects.

Abstract: The subject invention relates to insecticidal toxin complex (“TC”) fusion proteins and to polynucleotides that encode these fusion proteins. In some embodiments, the invention provides a fusion protein comprising a Class A protein, a Class B protein, and a Class C TC protein fused together to form a single protein. In some other embodiments, the invention provides a fusion protein comprising a Class B and a Class C TC proteins fused together. In the latter embodiments, the BC or CB fusion protein can be used to enhance or potentiate the anti-insect activity of a “Toxin A” or Class A protein. The subject invention also includes plants, cells (bacterial and plant cells for example), and seeds that comprise the polynucleotides. The subject invention also includes methods of controlling pests (preferably insects and other plant pests) with fusion proteins of the subject invention.

Abstract: The subject invention relates to novel Xenorhabdus toxin complex (TC) proteins and genes that encode these proteins. More specifically, the subject invention relates to TC genes and proteins obtainable from Xenorhabdus bovienii strain ILM104.

Abstract: The subject invention relates to the surprising discovery that toxin complex (TC) proteins, obtainable from Xenorhabdus, Photorhabdus, and Paenibacillus, can be used interchangeably with each other. In particularly preferred embodiments of the subject invention, the toxicity of a “stand-alone” TC protein (from Photorhabdus, Xenorhabdus, or Paenibacillus, for example) is enhanced by one or more TC protein “potentiators” derived from a source organism of a different genus from which the toxin was derived. As one skilled in the art will recognize with the benefit of this disclosure, this has broad implications and expands the range of utility that individual types of TC proteins will now be recognized to have. Among the most important advantages is that one skilled in the art will now be able to use a single set of potentiators to enhance the activity of a stand-alone Xenorhabdus protein toxin as well as a stand-alone Photorhabdus protein toxin.
