Abstract:The selective toxicity of 10 Bt spore-crystal proteins to Ovomermis sinensis was studied. The results indicated that 7 of them contained both Cry1Ac and Cry5 proteins (S1-1, S1-4, S3-2, S3-3, S7-1, S7-6 and S8-1), and others only contained Cry1Ac proteins (S1-8, S2-1 and HD-1). We demonstrated that the Bt crystal protein Cry5 from 7 Bt strains were lethal to eggs of O.sinensis. The most effective strain S1-4s LD50 values were 0.1503, 0.1313 and 0.0182μg total protein/mL respectively at 24, 48 and 72h. Infective and post-parasitic juveniles of O.sinensis were unlethal by Bt toxin. Bt toxin had no effect on infective juveniles infective efficiency and average infective intensity in Helicoverpa armigera (P>0.05). Exposure of post-parasitic juveniles to Bt toxins had no effect on their molt and development. Parasitic juveniles of O.sinensis could grow normally in H.armigera which were fed on cottons leaves dealing with low concentrations Bt toxins.
