DAS-8191Ø-7
DAS-8191Ø-7 is cotton that has been modified to express aryloxyalkanoate dioxygenase-12 (AAD-12) and  phosphinothricin acetyltransferase (PAT), which confer tolerance to the herbicides 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and glufosinate respectively.

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.

  • Agrobacterium-mediated DNA transfer
Some of these genetic elements may be present as fragments or truncated forms. Please see notes below, where applicable.
  • BCH-GENE-SCBD-104805-2 Aryloxyalkanoate dioxygenase gene | Delftia acidovorans (DELAC)
    Protein coding sequence | Resistance to herbicides
  • BCH-GENE-SCBD-14972-12 Phosphinothricin N-acetyltransferase gene | Streptomyces hygroscopicus (STRHY)
    Protein coding sequence | Resistance to herbicides (Glufosinate)
  • BCH-GENE-SCBD-104795-4 RB7 matrix attachment region | Nicotiana tabacum (Tobacco, TOBAC )
    Enhancer
  • BCH-GENE-SCBD-104802-5 Polyubiquitin10 gene promoter | Arabidopsis thaliana (Thale cress, Mouse-ear cress, Arabidopsis, ARATH)
    Promoter
  • BCH-GENE-SCBD-104806-3 ORF23 3' Untranslated region | Agrobacterium tumefaciens (Agrobacterium)
    Terminator
  • BCH-GENE-SCBD-101900-6 CsVMV promoter | Cassava vein mosaic virus (Cassava vein mosaic virus, CVMV, CsVMV)
    Promoter
  • BCH-GENE-SCBD-104807-2 ORF1 3' Untranslated region | Agrobacterium tumefaciens (Agrobacterium)
    Terminator
Southern blot analysis indicated that a single, intact insert of the aad-12 and pat genes were stably integrated into the cotton genome. Southern analyses also indicated the absence of the plasmid backbone DNA in DAS-8191Ø-7 cotton.
