Abstract
Novel genes encoding toxins which are active against lepidopteran insects have been cloned from novel lepidopteran-active microbes. The DNA encoding the toxins can be used to transform various prokaryotic and eukaryotic microbes to express the toxins. These recombinant microbes can be used to control lepidopteran insects in various environments.
