LMO name
Insect resistant, herbicide tolerant maize
Transformation event
TC1507 x DAS40278
Unique identifier
DAS-Ø15Ø7-1 x DAS-4Ø278-9
Developer(s)
Description
The stacked maize line DAS-Ø15Ø7-1 x DAS-4Ø278-9 was obtained through the traditional cross breading of each of the parental organisms to produce a maize that expresses each of aryloxyalkanoate dioxygenase, pat and Cry1F genes. The expression of these genes are expected to confer resistance to Lepidoptera, and tolerant to 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and aryloxyphenoxypropionate (AOPP) acetyl coenzyme A carboxylase (ACCase) inhibitors and the herbicide glufosinate.
Recipient Organism or Parental Organisms
The term Recipient organism refers to an organism (either already modified or non-modified) that was subjected to genetic modification, whereas Parental organisms refers to those that were involved in cross breeding or cell fusion.

Notes regarding the genetic elements introduced or modified in this LMO
DNA insert from TC1507 vector PHI8999A
The TC1507 line contained the Cry1F and PAT coding sequences and regulatory elements. The Cry1F gene produces insecticidal crystal protein that confers resistance against lepidopteran pests and the PAT gene produces Phosphinothricin N-acetyltransferase which confers tolerance to the glufosinate herbicide.

DNA insert from DAS40278 vector pDAS1740
DAS-40278-9 corn was modified with the insertion of a plant optimised coding sequence for aryloxyalkanoate dioxygenase to confer tolerance to the herbicides 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and aryloxyphenoxypropionate (AOPP) acetyl coenzyme A carboxylase (ACCase) inhibitors.
