The study conducted on the toxic effect of the Bacillus thuringiensis spores against the Tribolium castaneum can be of great importance in eliminating the stored pest grains. There are a lot of future perspectives of this study which are given below: ? Proper processes for the collection and handling of the samples should be under consideration in order to avoid the incorrect and contaminated samples from different sources. ? According to the nutritional requirements of the Bacillus thuringiensis a specific solid media called as T3 media is used for the culturing of these bacteria and incubation period of these is 72 hours for spore formation. ? To understand the physiology of the Tribolium castaneum is quite helpful in understanding the rearing processes of these beetles. ? Biotoxiciy assay provides a reliable method for determining the susceptibility of the Tribolium castaneum against Bacillus thuringiensis that provide an easy method to determine the mortality ratio. ? The...
