Abstract:

Entomopathogenic bacilli B. thuringiensis israelensis (Bti) and B. sphaericus (Bf) exhibit low survival on field application. It was previously shown that their spores are very sensitive to different stress effectors (heat, UV light) and especially to osmotic variations. Since SASP (Small, Acid-Soluble Spore Proteins), α/β and γ type, are involved in spore tolerance to heat, UV light, peroxide, and salt, they were analyzed in Bti and Bf. The molecular weight, migration pattern and amino acid composition of different SASP were determined and compared with other bacilli, in particular to B. subtilis. A relation between spore osmotolerance, SASP content, and amino acid composition was shown. In addition, the absence of τ SASP in Bti and Bf is discussed.
