Description 867-872
Internally Transcribed Spacers (ITS) characterization and distribution of Repetitive Extragenic Palindromic (REP) sequences were studied in the genome of 223 field isolates of <i>Bacillus thuringiensis </i>from Madurai, India. They were characterized by morphological, biochemical and molecular methods. One hundred and twenty four of a total 223 isolates fitted ITS characterization of <i>B. thuringiensis </i>varieties known. Significant genomic variation was observed among seven isolates using REP primers. The ITS PCR product (EMBL accession number AJ639659) exhibited 98% nucleotide sequence homology with <i>B. thuringiensis </i>and placed the origin of indigenous isolate LDC-7 closer to <i>B. thuringiensis </i>on the basis of phylogenetic analysis.
