Summary of Basic Genetic Modification
Gene Introduced | Gene Source | Product | Function |
vip3Aa20 | Bacillus thuringiensis strain AB88 | vegetative insecticidal protein (vip3Aa variant) | confers resistance to feeding damage caused by lepidopteran insects by selectively damaging their midgut |
mcry3A | synthetic form of cry3A gene from Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. tenebrionis | modified Cry3A delta-endotoxin | confers resistance to coleopteran insects particularly corn rootworm pests by selectively damaging their midgut lining |
cry1Fa2 | synthetic form of cry1F gene derived from Bacillus thuringiensis var. aizawai | modified Cry1F protein | confers resistance to lepidopteran insects by selectively damaging their midgut lining |
pat | Streptomyces viridochromogenes | phosphinothricin N-acetyltransferase (PAT) enzyme | eliminates herbicidal activity of glufosinate (phosphinothricin) herbicides by acetylation |
ecry3.1Ab | synthetic form of Cry3A gene and Cry1Ab gene from Bacillus thuringiensis | chimeric (Cry3A-Cry1Ab) delta endotoxin protein | confers resistance to coleopteran and lepidopteran insects by selectively damaging their midgut lining |
