IN SEARCH OF GREY LITERATURE ON "Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis"

The EMCA Bti-Working Group focuses on organizing, sharing and evaluating research on Bti, with initial emphasis on non-target organisms impact studies, but also on Bti efficacy, mosquito control applications and other related topics.

All kinds of literature on the Bti topic are valuable for the working group, including grey literature (documents, local reports, theses, etc.), so we would appreciate input from all EMCA community. If you have any document of interest — not only in English but also in local languages —please send it to EMCA at [email protected] with a short summary in English.

During the Workshop to be held in Mendrisio in November 2026, we will present the goals accomplished so far and open the floor for interactive discussions and suggestions before finalizing a Bti literature library that will be made available to all EMCA members.
