- Genetically engineered crops help support conservation biological control (2019, background): “Because Bt proteins are gut-active, they need to be ingested to reveal their insecticidal properties (Bravo et al., 2011).”

- Bacillus thuringiensis Toxins: An Overview of Their Biocidal Activity (2014, positive): “These Vip3 properties open the possibility to use Bt-based biopesticides for a greater number of pests and for the management of emerging insect resistance events to Bt Cry proteins [89,92,93].”
- Diversity of bacillus thuringiensis crystal toxins and mechanism of action (2014, background): “described in more detail in recent reviews (Bravo et al., 2011; JuratFuentes and Jackson, 2012; Pigott and Ellar, 2007).”
- Diseases in insects produced for food and feed (2015, background): “One of the most studied bacterial entomopathogens is Bt, which is used for microbial control of insect pests (Bravo et al. , 2011).”
- Advances in Elucidating Beneficial Interactions Between Plants, Soil, and Bacteria (2013, background): “Particularly, bacteria belonging to Azotobacter and Azospirillum have been applied to enhance nonlegume growth, and mainly Bacillus and Pseudomonas have been applied for biocontrol of plant diseases (Bashan, 1998; Bravo et al., 2011).”
- The gut microbiota of insects - diversity in structure and function. (2013, background): “…bacteria producing insecticidal toxins is a common method in agricultural pest control, but can also be used in the management of mosquitoes transmitting human diseases (Becker, 2000; Ffrench-Constant & Waterfield, 2006; Ffrench-Constant et al., 2007; Bravo et al., 2011; Sanahuja et al., 2011).”
