<p>The present invention provides isolated polynucleotide sequences encoding ET37, TIC810 and TIC812 proteins from Bacillus thuringiensis, and nucleotide sequences for use in expressing TIC809, ET37, TIC810 and TIC812, and fusions of various insecticidally effective combinations of these proteins such as TIC 127, in plants. Methods of making and using the polynucleotide sequences and the proteins in the development of transgenic plant cells and transgenic plants exhibiting improved insect resistance against (1) Coleopteran insects including Western Corn Rootworm (Dibrotica virgifera), Southern Corn Rootworm (Dibrotica undecempunctata), Northern Corn Rootworm (Diabrotica barbed), Mexican Corn Rootworm (Diabrotica virgifera zeae), Brazilian Corn Rootworm (Diabrotica balteata) and Brazilian Corn Rootworm complex (Diabrotica viridula and Diabrotica speciosa), and against Hemipteran insects such as Lygus bugs, are disclosed.</p> |
