Cloning and expression of Bacillus thuringiensis toxin gene encoding a protein toxic to beetles of the order Coleoptera

TLDR
The toxin gene encoding a protein toxic to beetles of the order Coleoptera, named M-7, has been cloned and expressed as discussed by the authors, and a novel Bacillus thuringiensis strain which has been deposited with a recognized culture repository.
Abstract
The toxin gene encoding a protein toxic to beetles of the order Coleoptera, named M-7, has been cloned and expressed. M-7 is a novel Bacillus thuringiensis strain which has been deposited with a recognized culture repository. The microbe is now known as B. thuringiensis strain san diego.
