Potential of bacteria isolated from chitin‐enriched soil against <i>Euschistus heros</i> (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae)
The bacteria CC1 (B. thuringiensis) and CC2 (B. altitudinis), isolated from chitin-enriched soil, demonstrate promising potential as bioinsecticides against E. heros under laboratory conditions. To our knowledge, these findings represent the first report of the use of B. altitudinis in the control of E. heros. © 2025 The Author(s).
