Summary of Basic Genetic Modification
Gene Introduced | Gene Source | Product | Function |
cp4 epsps (aroA:CP4) | Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain CP4 | herbicide tolerant form of 5-enolpyruvulshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS) enzyme | decreases binding affinity for glyphosate, thereby conferring increased tolerance to glyphosate herbicide |
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 |
