An insecticidal crystal protein gene, cryIA(C), from Bacillus thuringiensis HD-1 was cloned into a broad host range vector, pSUP204, and the resulting plasmid, pSUP89A, was conjugated into a plant-colonizing bacterium, Pseudomonas cepacia 526. Southern blot analysis detected the presence of the cry gene in Pseudomonas cepacia 526 transconjugants. Production of a truncated insecticidal crystal protein in Pseudomonas cepacia was detected by Western blotting and ELISA techniques and was found to have insecticidal activity against the tobacco hornworm, Manduca sexta, in an artificial diet assay. We also followed the establishment of the Pseudomonas cepacia 526/Bt transconjugant on axenically grown tobacco plants and found that approximately 1% of the Pseudomonas cells retained pSUP89A 3 days after application. In spite of this instability, treated tobacco plants were protected from Manduca sexta infestation. Key words: Bacillus thuringiensis, Pseudomonas cepacia, insecticidal crystal protein, Cry protein.
