Summary of Basic Genetic Modification
| Gene Introduced | Gene Source | Product | Function |
| cry2Ab2 | Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. kumamotoensis | Cry2Ab delta-endotoxin | confers resistance to lepidopteran insects by selectively damaging their midgut lining |
| cry1A.105 | Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. kumamotoensis | Cry1A.105 protein which comprises the Cry1Ab, Cry1F and Cry1Ac proteins | confers resistance to lepidopteran insects by selectively damaging their midgut lining |
| cspB | Bacillus subtilis | cold shock protein B | maintains normal cellular functions under water stress conditions by preserving RNA stability and translation |
