Isolation and Characterization of Bacillus thuringiensis strain AF6 Producing an Antifungal Substance and a Mosquitocidal Delta-endotoxin Simultaneously
모기유충에 대한 살충성 내독소와 항진균성 물질을 동시에 생산하는 B. thuringiensis AF6균주의 분리 및 특성
Abstract
For a biological control on a plant pathogen, Pryicularia Oryzae, and a mosquito, Aedes aegypti, Bacillus thuringiensis strain AF6 which produces parasporal inclusion, delta-endotoxin, was isolated. The B. thuringiensis strain AF6 was produced not only an antifungal substance(AFS) against P. oryzae, but also a mosquitocidal delta-endotoxin. The AFS of the strain AF6 in more stable at pH 4.0 than pH 10.0. At the mode of action, the AFS of the strain AF6 was inhibited hypha growth on potato agar plate(pH 5.0), and degraded cell walls of P. oryzae.
