Allergic rhinitis

Allergic rhinitis, of which the seasonal type is called hay fever, is a type of inflammation in the nose that occurs when the immune system overreacts to allergens in the air.

See Bacillus thuringiensis kurstaki and Allergic rhinitis

Bacillaceae

The Bacillaceae are a family of gram-positive, heterotrophic, rod-shaped bacteria that may produce endospores.

See Bacillus thuringiensis kurstaki and Bacillaceae

Bacillales

The Bacillales are an order of Gram-positive bacteria, placed within the Bacillota.

See Bacillus thuringiensis kurstaki and Bacillales

Bacilli

Bacilli is a taxonomic class of bacteria that includes two orders, Bacillales and Lactobacillales, which contain several well-known pathogens such as Bacillus anthracis (the cause of anthrax).

See Bacillus thuringiensis kurstaki and Bacilli

Bacillota

Bacillota (synonym Firmicutes) is a phylum of bacteria, most of which have gram-positive cell wall structure.

See Bacillus thuringiensis kurstaki and Bacillota

Bacillus

Bacillus (Latin "stick") is a genus of Gram-positive, rod-shaped bacteria, a member of the phylum Bacillota, with 266 named species.

Bacillus thuringiensis

Bacillus thuringiensis (or Bt) is a gram-positive, soil-dwelling bacterium, the most commonly used biological pesticide worldwide. Bacillus thuringiensis kurstaki and Bacillus thuringiensis are Bacillus and Biopesticides.

Bacteria

Bacteria (bacterium) are ubiquitous, mostly free-living organisms often consisting of one biological cell.

See Bacillus thuringiensis kurstaki and Bacteria

Biological pest control

Biological control or biocontrol is a method of controlling pests, whether pest animals such as insects and mites, weeds, or pathogens affecting animals or plants by using other organisms.

See Bacillus thuringiensis kurstaki and Biological pest control

Delta endotoxins

Delta endotoxins (δ-endotoxins) are a family of pore-forming toxins produced by Bacillus thuringiensis species of bacteria.

European Chemical Society

The European Chemical Society (EuChemS) is a European non-profit organisation which promotes collaboration between non-profit scientific and technical societies in the field of chemistry.

Irritation

Irritation, in biology and physiology, is a state of inflammation or painful reaction to allergy or cell-lining damage.

See Bacillus thuringiensis kurstaki and Irritation

Lepidoptera

Lepidoptera or lepidopterans is an order of winged insects that includes butterflies and moths.

Parasitoid wasp

Parasitoid wasps are a large group of hymenopteran superfamilies, with all but the wood wasps (Orussoidea) being in the wasp-waisted Apocrita.

Spore

In biology, a spore is a unit of sexual (in fungi) or asexual reproduction that may be adapted for dispersal and for survival, often for extended periods of time, in unfavourable conditions.

Toxication

Toxication, toxification or toxicity exaltation is the conversion of a chemical compound into a more toxic form in living organisms or in substrates such as soil or water.
