*** Bacillus thuringiensis (B. thuringiensis), is a Gram-positive bacterium, that forms a parasporal crystals with insecticidal activity against different insect orders. Bioinsecticides manufactured with B. thuringiensis spores and crystals are a useful alternative to synthetic chemical pesticide in agriculture and for mosquito control. B. thuringiensis has also been used successfully to suppress the population levels of medically important dipteran pests. Examples include the mosquito vectors of malaria, virus diseases including dengue. It was characterized 53 strains peruanas of Bacillus thuringiensis with entomocidal properties from soil Peruvian’s farms of the deparments of Junín, Lima (Huaral), Ica, Cuzco, Tacna, Arequipa, Chiclayo y Cajamarca, two: Ica10 y Caj1 with activity against Aedes aegypti. There are strains with toxins betwen 36 y 116kDa. Strains with bands to 97 and 70KDa, as those of Arequipa, Cajamarca and Chiclayo, which would be entomocidal with band of 130 kDa that correspond to cry gen, toxic to Lepidoptera and Diptera. Cry2 gene was the most abundant (92%), followed by cry1 (45%) and cry 4 (42%), which means that the strains would have activity against Dipterans. The sequencing confirms the content of cry genes in most of the analyzed strains. The strain Cuz5 as variety cries 2Ab. The PCR method is effective to rapidly characterize the strains based on the content of genes that amplify with known sequences of oligonucleótidos and REP-PCR shows patterns of different bands in the isolated strains that could mean genetic variability among the studied strains, the dendogram allows to group them into three clusters and subclusters, that might be due to the varieties of the gene cry. Key words: Bacillus thuringiensis, parasporal crystal, entomocida, cry gene, crop pestes.
