Cowpea cultivar IT86D-1010 was modified via Agrobacterium-mediated transformation for the expression a truncated version of the Cry1Ab protein from Bacillus thuringiensis subs. kurstaki strain HD-1 for resistance against Pod Borer (Maruca vitrata).

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.

Transcription of cry1Ab occurs from the Arabidopsis thaliana ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase (Rubisco) small subunit promoter, which also contains the 5' untranslated region. Transcription terminates at the Nicotiana tabacum ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase small subunit terminator. The nucleotide sequence of cry1Ab was codon optimized for plant expression and encodes a 615-amino acid protein (68.9 kDa), corresponding to the trypsin-resistant, insecticidally active core protein, following cleavage of the 1155-amino acid native Cry1Ab protoxin.
For selection during cloning, a kanamycin resistance gene cassette was also integrated into the genome. Transcription of the neomycin phosphotranferase II (nphII) gene starts at the subterranean clover stunt virus (SCSV) 1 promoter. Two segments of nptII are transcribed, with a catalase-1 intron from Ricinus communis between the two segments and an intervening sequence from the MB4 plasmid following the second segment. Transcription stops at the SCSV3 terminator.
