Abstract

Various combinations of the genes cryIVA (cry4A), cryIVD (cry11A), and p20 from Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. israelensis were introduced into the nitrogen-fixing cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. strain PCC 7120 by means of Escherichia coli-Anabaena shuttle vector pRL488p and were expressed under control of two tandem strong promoters, a cyanobacterial promoter (PpsbA) and an E. coli T7 promoter (PA1). Two of the clones carrying cryIVA plus cryIVD, one with p20 and one without p20, displayed toxicity against third-instar larvae of Aedes aegypti at levels greater than any level previously reported for transgenic cyanobacteria.
