The insecticidal protein produced by Pseudomonas pseudoalcaligenes is purified from the suspension of the bacterial culture. As an intact molecule, the protein acts on the foregut, midgut, hindgut, vasa Malpighii and fat body, and kills locusts. The disinsection rates of feeding and injection are 63.3% and 65.7%, respectively. After 24h to 48h, it is observed that all these tissues and cells show pathological changes in varying degrees, and so did the host cellular organs of these cells, such as cytoblast, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum and ribosome. Particularly, the changes of the mitochondria are much more serious than those of others. Detection of oxygen electrode shows the efficiency of oxidative phosphorylation and the ATP synthesis decreases, while the activity of mitochondrial ATPase is almost not affected. That means the energy utilization of locusts is in gear, but the shortage of the supplying of energy results in their death. This research forms the substantial basis for controlling locusts.
