The maize (Zea mays) was produced through crossing modified parental lines for resistance to insect pests and tolerance to herbicides. For protection from Lepidoptera insects, the maize expresses synthetic Cry1F protein, which has a pore-forming mode of action that selectively damages the midgut epithelium line of feeding larvae. For protection from Coleoptera insects, the maize expresses Bacillus thuringiensis Cry34Ab1 and Cry35Ab1, which also have a pore-forming mode of action in the midgut epithelium lining. For tolerance to glufosinate, the maize expresses Streptomyces viridochromogenes phosphinothricin N-acetyltransferase, which inactivates phosphinothricin through acetylation. In addition, the modified maize expresses Sphingobium herbicidovorans aryloxyalkanoate dioxygenase, which cleaves 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid into non-herbicidal dichlorophenol and glyoxylate, as well as inactivates aryloxyphenoxypropionate herbicides (acetyl‐CoA carboxylase inhibitors).
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.

DNA insert from 4114 (DP-ØØ4114-3) vector PHP27118
The DNA insert contains four gene cassettes: Bacillus thuringiensis cry1F, B. thuringiensis cry34Ab1, B. thuringiensis cry35Ab1 and Streptomyces viridochromogenes phosphinothricin N-acetyltransferase (pat).
The DNA insert contains four gene cassettes: Bacillus thuringiensis cry1F, B. thuringiensis cry34Ab1, B. thuringiensis cry35Ab1 and Streptomyces viridochromogenes phosphinothricin N-acetyltransferase (pat).
Transcription of the cry1F is under control of a Zea mays ubiquitin promoter and an Agrobacterium tumefaciens ORF25 terminator. A Z. mays ubiquitin intron 1 sequence is also present to enhance the expression of cry1F. Transcription of the cry34Ab1 is under control of a Z. mays ubiquitin promoter and Solanum tuberosum proteinase inhibitor II terminator. A Z. mays ubiquitin intron 1 sequence is also present to enhance the expression of cry34Ab1. Transcription of cry35Ab1 is under control of Triticum aestivum peroxidase promoter and S. tuberosum proteinase inhibitor II terminator. Transcription of pat is under control of Cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) 35S promoter and CaMV 35S terminator.
Note:
Note:
- The ubiquitin gene promoter element is made up of the promoter region (900bp) and the 5' untranslated region (83bp) of the ubiquitin gene.
- Transcription is expected to be occur at elevated levels for the present gene cassettes.
- Southern blot analyses indicated that a single, intact transformation cassette was inserted into the genome of 4114 maize with no integration of the backbone of plasmid PHP27118.
DNA insert from DAS40278 (DAS-4Ø278-9) vector pDAS1740
The LMO was generated using the Whiskers-mediated transformation method. Sphingobium herbicidovorans aryloxyalkanoate dioxygenase-1 (aad-1) is under the control of Zea mays ubiquitin gene promoter and Z. mays root preferential cationic peroxidase terminator. Elevated levels of transcription are expected to occur due to the constitutive nature of the ubiquitin promoter.

Note:
- The aad-1 coding sequence was optimized for expression in the plant.
- Southern blot analysis indicated that a single complete copy of the transformation cassette was stably integrated into the host genome at a single locus
- No integration of the vector backbone occurred.
