- Protein crystals produced by Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) constitute at the present time the major source of approved biological agents for the control of insect pests of forestry and agriculture, as well as insect vectors of human and animal diseases. Global warming represents a new threat, resulting in an influx of invasive species of pests affecting the health, the economy, the environment and the biodiversity of Canada and other temperate climate countries. Due to growing health and environmental concerns, the shift from chemical to biological pesticides is inescapable; it is the only acceptable long-term solution to provide efficient pest management in the context of sustainability of resources and the environment.

-苏云金芽孢杆菌(Bt)产生的蛋白质晶体目前是经批准的用于控制林业和农业害虫的生物制剂的主要来源，以及人类和动物疾病的昆虫媒介。全球变暖是一种新的威胁，导致入侵物种的害虫涌入，影响加拿大和其他温带气候国家的健康、经济、环境和生物多样性。由于对健康和环境的日益关注，从化学杀虫剂转向生物杀虫剂是不可避免的；在资源和环境可持续性的背景下提供有效的虫害管理是唯一可接受的长期解决办法。
