Gene

Cry1Ab and cspB

Gene Product

Cry1Ab and cspB proteins

Gene Function

For resistance to Lepidoptera pests, the maize expresses Bacillus thuringiensis Cry1Ab, which causes pore formation in the midgut epithelial cells of larvae and results in loss of gut lining integrity and eventual death. For drought tolerance, the maize expresses Bacillus subtilis cold shock protein (cspB), which binds RNA and maintains cellular functions under water-limited conditions (improvement of natural abiotic stress responses).

Method of Introduction

Gene

Modified to restore fertility to male-sterile maize lines and to facilitate hybrid maize seed production. The parental line is homozygous for the male-sterile Ms44 gene. To restore male-fertility, the maize expresses an artificial microRNA cassette to silence the Ms44 and allow for pollen production. To produce the male-sterile female hybrid lines for further seed production, the maintainer line is used as a pollinator. Pollen carrying the introduced constructs expresses maize alpha-amylase, which depletes the starch reserves in the nascent pollen and prevents germination

Method of Introduction

Gene

To obtain increased yield, the maize constitutively expresses Z. mays MADS-box transcriptional factor zmm28. Constitutive expression of zmm28 is thought to increase yield by up-regulating genes involved in photosynthesis, nitrogen assimilation and carbon metabolic processes. ZMM28 may also interact with receptors to modulate phytohormone (auxin and gibberellin) signaling. Agronomically, the plants also have greater vegetative stage plant height, leaf biomass and total leaf area. For glufosinate tolerance, the maize expresses Streptomyces viridochromogenes phosphinothricin acetyltransferase, which inactives glufosinate via acetylation.

Gene Product

Up-regulation of genes involved in photosynthesis, nitrogen assimilation and carbon metabolic processes and inactivation of glufosinate via acetylation.

Gene

Modified to restore fertility to male-sterile maize lines and to facilitate hybrid maize seed production. The parental line is homozygous for the male-sterile Ms44 gene. To restore male-fertility, the maize expresses an artificial microRNA cassette to silence the Ms44 and allow for pollen production. To produce the male-sterile female hybrid lines for further seed production, the maintainer line is used as a pollinator. Pollen carrying the introduced constructs expresses maize alpha-amylase, which depletes the starch reserves in the nascent pollen and prevents germination

Method of Introduction

2024-11-28

Gene

The maize (Zea mays) was modified for resistance to insects and tolerance to herbicides. For resistance to Lepidopteran pests, the modified maize expresses a Bacillus thuringiensis chimeric delta endo-toxin Cry1Da2, which forms non-specific, ion conducting pores in the apical membrane of the midgut epithelial cells and leads to larval death. For tolerance to glyphosate, the modified maize expresses Streptomyces sviceus DGT28 5-enolpiruvilshikimate- 3-phosphate synthase, which allows for the continuing functioning of the shikimate pathway by avoiding inhibition from the herbicidal compound.

Gene Product

Method of Introduction

Gene

Contains a suppression cassette that expresses an inverted repeat sequence designed to match the sequence of western corn rootworm (WCR). It also contains a cry3Bb1 gene. In addition, MON 87411 contains the cp4 epsps gene from Agrobacterium sp. strain CP4.

Gene Product

The expression of the suppression cassette results in the formation of a double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) transcript containing a 240 bp fragment of the WCR Snf7 gene (DvSnf7). Upon consumption, the plant-produced dsRNA in MON 87411 is recognized by the CRW’s RNA interference (RNAi) machinery resulting in down regulation of the targeted DvSnf7 gene leading to CRW mortality. cry3Bb1 gene produces a modified Bacillus thuringiensis (subsp. kumamotoensis) Cry3Bb1 protein to protect against CRW larval feeding. cp4 epsps gene encodes for the 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS) protein, which confers tolerance to glyphosate
