Bacillus cereus Bacillota	Scirpophaga incertulas Bacillus cereus strain NRYSBBC-1 can degrade Chlorpyrifos and Chlorantraniliprole in vitro. Oryctes rhinoceros Bacillus cereus ATCC 14579 provides symbiotic digestive functions to Oryctes rhinoceros. Psammotermes hypostoma Bacillus cereus isolates show significant cellulolytic activity, contributing to cellulose digestion. Phlebotomus papatasi No function data Lissorhoptrus oryzophilus Bacillus cereus might be a promising paratransgenesis candidate. Plutella xylostella Bacillus cereus is involved in the degradation of acephate and uses acephate as a source of carbon and energy for growt… Plutella xylostella Bacillus cereus is involved in the degradation of indoxacarb and could use indoxacarb for metabolism and growth. Aedes aegypti Bacillus cereus contributes to the gut microbiome homeostasis maintained by mosquito C-type lectins. Termitidae The ability of these arthropods to feed on wood, foliage, and detritus is likely to involve catalysis by different type… Termitidae The ability of these arthropods to feed on wood, foliage, and detritus is likely to involve catalysis by different type… Anticarsia gemmatalis Bacillus cereus mitigates the negative effects of proteinase inhibitors produced by the host plant. Anticarsia gemmatalis Bacillus cereus processes serine- and cysteine-proteinase activities (protein degradation). Anticarsia gemmatalis Bacillus cereus acts against plant-derived protease inhibitors, potentially aiding in pest control. Anticarsia gemmatalis Bacillus cereus allows the insect to adapt to plants rich in protease inhibitors, minimizing their harmful consequences. Anticarsia gemmatalis Bacillus cereus exhibits protein hydrolase activity for proteases, serine proteases, and cysteine proteases.
