Absorption, translocation, and effects of Bt Cry1Ac peptides from transgenic cotton to the intercrops and soil functional bacteria

Abstract Insecticidal proteins encoded by the truncated genes from Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) in transgenic crops are released into soil mainly through root exudate and crop residues. In the present study, Bt Cry1Ac protein was hydrolyzed by pronase that was secreted by the soil bacterium Streptomy...
