Engineering the bacterial endophyte Burkholderia pyrrocinia JK-SH007 for the control of lepidoptera larvae by introducing the cry218 genes of Bacillus thuringiensis

To expand the usage of endophytes in agriculture and in forestry, the insecticidal gene cry218 of Bacillus thuringiensis was introduced into a poplar bacterial endophyte Burkholderia pyrrocinia JK-SH007. The cry218 gene was cloned by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and was inserted into a PHKT2 expr...
