IMPACT OF ENTOMOPATHOGENIC BACTERIA BACILLUS THURINGIENSIS ENTOMOPATHOGENIC ON THE YIELD AND QUALITY OF APPLE FRUIT
Journal: Agriciltural microbiology
Year: 2016

It was established that treatment of apple trees for control over harmful insects with liquid preparations based on entomopathogenic strains of Bacillus thuringiensis 03071, 0376, and 0408 which synthesize protein endotoxins and water-soluble exotoxin, provides a yield of fruit according to the level of 16.2–18.1 t/ha, whereas treatment with preparation based on strain B. thuringiensis 787, that does not contain exotoxin in metabolites, contributes to the yield at the level of only 12.7 t/ha.
