摘要：
Disclosed are biocontrol agents for the control of insects (e.g., moths, and mosquitoes such as Aedes aegypti), in particular Chromobacterium vaccinii strains capable of killing insects such as mosquitoes and moths. More specifically, disclosed are Chromobacterium vaccinii strains MWU205 (NRRL B-50840), MWU300 (NRRL B-50841) and MWU328 (NRRL B-50842). Also disclosed is a biocontrol strategy whereby insects (e.g. mosquitoes, moths) are exposed to the Chromobacterium vaccinii strains MWU205, MWU300 or MWU328 as a method for killing insects, including insect larvae in more than one taxonomic order.
