Abstract excerpt
UNLABELLED: The group of nematicidal crystal protein Cry6A shares very low identity and exhibits different structure with Cry5B, another well-studied group of nematicidal crystal protein produced by Bacillus thuringiensis. In this study, we assayed the susceptibility of bre mutants (Caenorhabditis elegans with resistance to Cry5B) to Cry6Aa2 and examined the synergistic activity between Cry6Aa2 and Cry5Ba2. Our...
