Insect problem has been one of the most severe problems in agriculture and forestry, which causes great economic losses to the primary industry in China. For a long time, the use of chemical insecticides for insect control has led to many issues, such as pollution, insect resistance, etc. Therefore, in recent years, the research and application on biological pesticides of broad spectrum, high efficiency and low toxicity is increasing. Insecticidal proteins, especially those of microbial source, as an important branch of biological insecticides, have been continuously developed and applied due to their excellent insecticidal potential. This paper aims to classify the information on insecticidal proteins from microorganism over the world, and to provide fresh opinions for the application of insecticidal proteins in agriculture, forestry and other industries in China.
