2 Biopesticides Excellente alternative to substitute the chemical insecticides Bioinsecticides advantages -Biodegradable - Harmless to humans, birds and other mammals, -Respect the environment -Act specifically -Toxicity at low concentrations Biopesticides derive from natural materials as animals, plants, bacteria but essentially from micro-organisms (fungi, virus, bacteria)
3 BT : the star of biopesticides (90%) Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) is a Gram + bacterium that kills insects larvae due to its parasporal crystals containing deltaendotoxins Spore crystal Crystal (δ-endotoxin)
4 *The Bt toxin is harmless to humans, birds and other mammals *Bts also are harmless to bees and other beneficial insect species (e.g., predators and parasites). >>>>>>>>>>>Specific
5 The delta-endotoxins are packaged in crystals that differ from one sub species to another by their number, composition, size and shape Bipyramidal Delta-endotoxins Carrier protein Passenger protein (Ricca and Cutting, 2003) Spherical apathetic ( LB pes., 2007, unpublished) Cubic They could be displayed at the B. thuringiensis spore surface, which improve its insecticidal activity. These spores could be used as recombinant protein display systems.
6 Bacillus thuringiensis is a source of different biological pesticides Bt Produces parasporal crystalline delta-endotoxin inclusions Cry proteins: insecticidal Cyt proteins Cytolytic activities B. thuringiensis Gram+ Bacteriocins Bactericidal activities Chitinases Enzymes having fungicide activities Two classes of Vegetative Insecticidal Proteins Vip1-Vip2 : binary toxins / Coleopteran Vip3 / Lepidopteran

26 II- Investigation and manipulation of Vegetative insecticidal proteins
27 This class of vegetative insecticidal proteins (Vip) includes The binary toxin Vip1 and Vip2 with Coleopteran activity The toxin Vip3 with Lepidopteran activity
28 Vip3 is a secreted toxin Vip3 is active against the Lepidoperan pest Agrotis ipsilon that attacks more than 50 crops including cereal grains. This pest is not very sensitive to B. thuringiensis d- endotoxins In the midgut of susceptible larvae, Vip3 protein was activated and proteolysis generate 4 major products of about 62, 45, 33 and 22 kda Then, the active form of the toxin (62 kda) bounds to the midgut receptors causing larvae death
29 Screening of a collection of B. thuringiensis strains for the presence of vip3-type genes By PCR and Slot-blot hybridization, we detected the presence of vip3-type genes in 30% of the studied strains
30 Due to the interest provided by the insecticidal activity exhibited by the supernatant of the strain BUPM95 against the Lepidopteran larvae Ephestia kuehniella and Prays oleae, a vip gene named vip3lb was cloned from this strain

49 In the CAS, Dept Biol &Env Sc, we are developing an integrated approach that will explore activities of new Bt isolates from the Qatar and Gulf region, unexplored area, by performing a big programme of Bt strain isolation from different places in this region, screening using modern molecular techniques, gene investigation, bioassays. The novel strains with high insecticidal activity will be used for the optimization of bioinsecticide production at large scale fermentation. Success in any of these actions will have great impact on Qatar and Gulf agriculture and health in respect to respectively food safety and control of disease vector insects and possibly also socio-economic impact Thanks, With my best regards
