are usually specifi c to lepidopteran larvae (Figures 7.2 and 7.3), type II genes encode for
70 kDa proteins that are specifi c to lepidopteran and dipteran larvae, and type III genes
encode for 70 kDa proteins specifi c to coleopteran larvae. Type IV genes are specifi c to the
dipteran larvae. The system was further extended to include type V genes that encode for
proteins effective against lepidopteran and coleopteran larvae (Tailor et al., 1992). The Bt
d-endotoxins are now known to constitute a family of related proteins for which 140 genes
have been described (Crickmore et al., 1998), with specifi cities for Lepidoptera, Coleoptera,
