Insect chaperones Hsp70 and Hsp90 cooperatively enhance toxicity of Bacillus thuringiensis Cry1A toxins and counteract insect resistance
Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) produces different insecticidal proteins effective for pest control. Among them, Cry insecticidal proteins have been used in transgenic plants for the control of insect pests. However, evolution of resistance by insects endangers this technology. Previous work showed that...
