Bacillus Thuringiensis (BT) – 1 Kg – Bannari Amman

Bacillus  thuringiensis is a powerful phosphate-solubilizing bacterium and produces diverse compounds useful for crop production. It can also be utilized as a commercial biofertilizer or biostimulator products for enhancing overall plant production.

Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) is a species of bacteria that lives in soil. It makes proteins that are toxic to some insects when eaten, but not others. The proteins are not toxic to humans because, like all mammals, we cannot activate them.

Bacillus thuringiensis (or Bt) is a gram-positive, soil-dwelling bacterium, the most commonly used biological pesticide worldwide. B. thuringiensis also occurs naturally in the gut of caterpillars of various types of moths and butterflies, as well on leaf surfaces, aquatic environments, animal feces, insect-rich environments, and flour mills and grain-storage facilities. It has also been observed to parasitize other moths such as Cadra calidella.
