Basic Genetic Modification

Gene Introduced Gene Source Product Function
cry3A Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. tenebrionis cry3A delta endotoxin confers resistance to coleopteran insects by selectively damaging their midgut lining
nptII  * Escherichia coli Tn5 transposon neomycin phosphotransferase II enzyme allows transformed plants to metabolize neomycin and kanamycin antibiotics during selection
plrv_orf1 Potato Leaf Roll Virus (PLRV) putative replicase domain of the potato leaf roll virus (PLRV) confers resistance to potato leaf roll virus (PLRV) through gene silencing mechanism
plrv_orf2 Potato Leaf Roll Virus (PLRV) putative helicase domain of the potato leaf roll virus (PLRV) confers resistance to potato leaf roll virus (PLRV) through gene silencing mechanism
