Table 1. Comparison of the toxicity of Cry4Ba and its mutant inclusions towards A. aegypti larvae.
Toxin inclusion | LC50† (µg ml−1) |
---|---|
Wild-type Cry4Ba | 0.50 (0.36–0.71) |
Cry4Ba-R203Q | 0.59 (0.37–0.93) |
LC50 represents the toxin inclusion concentration that leads to 50% mortality after 24 h exposure to a serial dilution of each toxin inclusion. 95% confidence limits are indicated in parentheses.
