Basic Genetic Modification
| Gene Introduced | Gene Source | Product | Function |
| hppdPF W336 | Pseudomonas fluorescens strain A32 | modified p-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (hppd) enzyme | confers tolerance to HPPD-inhibiting herbicides (such as isoxaflutole) by reducing the specificity for the herbicide's bioactive constituent |
| 2mepsps | Zea mays | 5-enolpyruvyl shikimate-3-phosphate synthase enzyme (double mutant version) | decreases binding affinity for glyphosate, thereby increasing tolerance to glyphosate herbicide |
| cry1Ab | Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. kurstaki | Cry1Ab delta-endotoxin | confers resistance to lepidopteran insects by selectively damaging their midgut lining |
| cry2Ae | Bacillus thuringiensis subsp Dakota | Cry2Ae delta-endotoxin | confers resistance to lepidopteran insects by selectively damaging their midgut lining |
| bar | Streptomyces hygroscopicus | phosphinothricin N-acetyltransferase (PAT) enzyme | eliminates herbicidal activity of glufosinate (phosphinothricin) herbicides by acetylation |
| bar | Streptomyces hygroscopicus | phosphinothricin N-acetyltransferase (PAT) enzyme | eliminates herbicidal activity of glufosinate (phosphinothricin) herbicides by acetylation |
| vip3Aa19 | Bacillus thuringiensis strain AB88 | vegetative insecticidal protein (vip3Aa variant) | confers resistance to feeding damage caused by lepidopteran insects by selectively damaging their midgut lining |
| dmo | Stenotrophomonas maltophilia strain DI-6 | dicamba mono-oxygenase enzyme | confers tolerance to the herbicide dicamba (2-methoxy-3,6-dichlorobenzoic acid) by using dicamba as substrate in an enzymatic reaction |

Event Description
The GM Approval Database, or GMAD, is one of ISAAA’s unique features that compiles all the available information about biotech/GM crops that have been approved for planting and importation for food and feed, and commercialization. ISAAA sources out the information from publicly available decision documents per country, Biosafety Clearing Houses and peer-reviewed scholarly articles to maintain the credibility of the database. Your contribution can help expand and maintain the GMAD and make useful information more available to researchers, students, and the general public. You can help by donating as little as $10.
