Bacillus thuringiensis is a gram-positive, spore-forming soil bacterium in the family Bacillaceae, widely known for producing crystalline protein toxins (Cry proteins) that are insecticidal. It is globally distributed in soils, plant surfaces, and insect habitats. It is extensively used in biological pest control as a safe alternative to chemical insecticides.
