Abstract:
PCT No. PCT/US90/03758 Sec. 371 Date Feb. 28, 1991 Sec. 102(e) Date Feb. 28, 1991 PCT Filed Jun. 29, 1990.Insect control agents comprising genes encoding proteins affecting the growth, development or behavior of an insect are provided. The gene is either activated to prevent insect molting and pupation or is inactivated to reduce the feeding behavior, inhibit growth and result in the earlier death of the insect host. Such an insect control agent is exemplified by a baculovirus in which the gene encoding ecdysteriod glucosyltransferase has been inactivated. Additionally, such baculoviruses may be further modified to express a protein which affects ecdysis. Methods for producing the insect control agent and methods of controlling insects by exposing them to the insect control agent are also included.
