pesticide Bt cotton, or Bacillus thuringiensis cotton, is used the same as any other cotton. The only difference is that it has a protein genetically added which is identical to that of B. thuringiensis bacteria which is toxic to many caterpillars, especially Lepidoptera species. Therefore it is an economically important "built-in" insecticide.
Indigo plant leaves are used for dying cotton.
COTTON is a plant , organic cotton is made of COTTON!

Cotton plants.
One of the advantages of the BT Cotton is that it does not have the actual bacterium Bacillus thuriengensis in it which is harmless to humans. The other advantage is that the BT Cotton successfully repels the boll weevil larvae.
Bt cotton
Bt cotton is very similar to any normal cotton plant grown all these years except for the insect-resistance trait conferred by Bt genes. These genes are derived from a commonly found soil bacterium called Bacillus thuringiensis. The Bt genes are incorporated into cotton plants by a process called TRANSFORMATION. Once the Bt genes stably integrate into cotton plant they produce Bt proteins, which kills larvae feeding on plant parts. Thus Bt plants give protection from insect pests and thereby increase yields of cotton fibre.
Use of genetically modified crops helps us to minimize the use of fertilizers and chemicals so that their harmful effects on environment can be reduced.For example- Bt cotton is produced by a bacterium called Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt for short). Bt toxin gene has been cloned from the bacteria and been expressed in plants to produced resistance to insects without the need for insecticides; in effect created a bio-pesticide. Examples are Bt cotton, Bt rice, tomato, potato, soybean.corn etc.
BT-plant means plant having BT-gene like BT-cotton. These are transgenic plants developed by genetic engineering.
vhb
Yes. Most are herbicide resistant (soybean, canola) or produce insecticidal proteins (BT corn, cotton).
explain common but differentiated responsibility
Bt cotton is an example of genetically modified organism.
Yes. BT is a biological control, and not a pesticide. I use it on cabbage and tomatoes.
The primary use of a BT Hub is to be able to use it on different ISP addresses. To be able to do this all you need to do is unlock the BT Hub by flashing the SpeedTouch firmware to the Home Hub.
Bt stands for bacillus thuringiensis, a common soil bacterium toxic to lepidopteran insects. When "Bt" is placed before a plant name, such as in "Bt Brinjal" (the brinjal is known in the US as eggplant), it means the plant has been genetically modified to produce a protein toxic to certain insects in the same way the bacteria does.The protein has not been shown to be harmful to humans but is controversial in other contexts.
