Bacillus thuringiensis Bt185 and its insecticidal spectrum-expanded engineering strains are considered as potential biocontrol agents to soil insect Holotrichia parallela, Holotrichia oblita or Anomala corpulenta. Here we reported the complete genome of strain Bt185, it harbors eight plasmids, and plasmid pBT1850294 carries three cry8 genes.
