BCS-GHØØ2-5 × BCS-GHØØ5-8
GHB614 x GHB119 cotton is the product of the conventional breeding of each of the parental organisms to produce cotton that expresses each of Cry2Ae, PAT and EPSPS. The expression of these genes are expected to confer resistance to Lepidoptera and tolerance to glufosinate herbicide and glyphosate herbicide.

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 GHB614 vector pTEM2
Contains a single copy of the 2mepsps gene and regulatory elements which confers tolerance to the herbicide glyphosate

DNA insert from GHB119 vector pTEM12
Contains one full copy of the Cry2Ae gene which expressed an insecticidal crystal protein that protects against lepidopteran pests and the bar gene which confers tolerance to the herbicide glufosinate.
