Novel insecticidal proteins that are toxic to lepidopteran pests are disclosed. The polynucleotides encoding the insecticidal proteins can be used to transform prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms to express the insecticidal proteins. The recombinant organisms or compositions containing the recombinant organisms or the insecticidal proteins alone or in combination with other pest control agents and an appropriate agricultural carrier can be used to control lepidopteran pests in various environments.
A recombinant Cry protein that is toxic to a lepidopteran pest, wherein the Cry protein comprises (a) an amino acid sequence that has at least 95% to at least 99% sequence identity with an amino acid sequence of any of SEQ ID NOs:1-3, or toxin fragments thereof;
A hybrid Cry1J protein comprising from N-terminus to C-terminus a Cry1Ja portion corresponding to amino acids 1-89 of SEQ ID NO:1, a Cry1Jc portion corresponding to amino acid positions 90-201 of SEQ ID NO:1 and a Cry1Ja portion corresponding to amino acid position 202-1167 of SEQ ID NO:1.
