Abstract
A rapid and simple method of staining for the crystal protein (δ-endotoxin or parasporal body) ofBacillus thuringiensis has been developed. Changes in colonial morphology were observed when cells lost their ability to form crystal protein or both crystal protein and spore.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
