Abstract
The effects of sixteen different nutrient media on the entomopathogenic activity of three Bacillus thuringiensisstrains was studied. The medium composition based on potato, yeast extract, and molasses was optimized. B. thuringiensisno. 1 grown on the media nos. 7 and 9 displayed the highest entomopathogenic activity (94.3 and 90.6%, respectively).
