Cowpea
Species
Vigna unguiculata
Trade Name
PBR Cowpea
Event Name
AAT709A
Method of Introduction
Agrobacterium-mediated DNA transfer
Year of Approval
2023-06-20
Gene
Cry1Ab
Gene Product
Cry1Ab insecticidal protein
Gene Function
The modified cowpea expresses Bacillus thuringiensis crystal protein Cry1Ab, which has a pore-forming mode of action that selectively damages the midgut epithelium line of feeding larvae, resulting in cell lysis and septicemia and leading to death of the feeding larvae.

Gene
Cry1Ab and Cry2Ab
Gene Product
Expresses Bt proteins Cry1Ab and Cry2Ab, which have a pore-forming mode of action that selectively damages the midgut epithelium line of feeding larvae, resulting in death of the feeding larvae. The parental lines were crossed to include the Cry2Ab cassette in addition to the Cry1Ab to address the potential formation of resistance in pests.
