Disclosed and claimed are novel Bacillus thuringiensis isolates which have lepidopteran activity. Thus, these isolates, or mutants thereof, can be used to control such insect pests. Further, genes encoding novel .delta.-endotoxins can be removed from the isolates and transferred to other host microbes, or plants. Expression of the .delta.-endotoxins in such hosts results in the control of susceptible insect pests in the environment of such hosts.

Nouveaux isolats de Bacillus thuringiensis exerçant des effets contre les lépidoptères. Ces isolats ou des mutants de ces isolats peuvent être utilisés pour lutter contre ces insectes nuisibles. Par ailleurs, des gènes codant de nouvelles endotoxines .delta. peuvent être extraits des isolats puis transferés à d'autres microbes ou végétaux hôtes. L'expression des endotoxines .delta. dans de tels hôtes permet de lutter contre les insectes nuisibles vulnérables dans l'environnement de tels hôtes.
