Characteristics of the protein coding sequence
EN
Cry1Ab/Cry2Aj is a fusion protein consisting of the two crystal proteins Cry1Ab and Cry2Aj and a connecting peptide. The fusion protein is expected to have an increased (10 times) insecticidal activity, a wider insecticidal spectrum compared to the individual crystal proteins and is expected to slow pest resistance to crystal proteins. The fusion protein is expected to be active against: cotton bollworms, beet armyworms and corn borer, as well as Chilo suppressalis of rice, corn and cotton, among other Lepidoptera pests.
