Abstract:
A nucleopolyhedrovirus (NPV), a composition comprising the NPV, and a method comprising the use of the NPV is provided. The NPV was isolated from Cryptophlebia peltastica and has insecticidal activity against several species of moths within the tortricid tribe, Grapholitini. The NPV or composition may be suitable for use in controlling insect populations, particularly populations of insects that infest plants.
