Description
The stacked maize line was obtained through the traditional cross breeding of the parental organisms MON-87427-7 and MON-89Ø34-3. The line inherited genes that express cry1A.105, cry2Ab2 and cp4epsps. The expression of these genes confer glyphosate herbicide tolerance and resistance to Lepidoptera and Coleoptera.
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 MON89034 vector PV-ZMIR245
Maize line MON89034 expresses two Bt-toxins encoded by the genes cry1A.105 and cry2Ab2 from Bacillus thuringiensis that confer resistance against certain lepidopteran pests.

DNA insert from MON87427, vector PV-ZMAP1043:
MON87427 was modifies to express the CP4 EPSPS protein which confers tolerance to the herbicide glyphosate. The e35S-hsp70 promoter and intron combination is used to drive the tissue selective expression of the cp4 epsps gene resulting in CP4 EPSPS protein production in vegetative and female reproductive tissue, providing tolerance to glyphosate within these tissues.

For additional information on this LMO, please refer to the records of the parental LMOs.
