Summary of Basic Genetic Modification

Gene Introduced	Gene Source	Product	Function
pat	Streptomyces viridochromogenes	phosphinothricin N-acetyltransferase (PAT) enzyme	eliminates herbicidal activity of glufosinate (phosphinothricin) herbicides by acetylation
cry1Ab	Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. kurstaki	Cry1Ab delta-endotoxin	confers resistance to lepidopteran insects by selectively damaging their midgut lining
cry34Ab1	Bacillus thuringiensis strain PS149B1	Cry34Ab1 delta-endotoxin	confers resistance to coleopteran insects particularly corn rootworm by selectively damaging their midgut lining
cry35Ab1	Bacillus thuringiensis strain PS149B1	Cry35Ab1 delta-endotoxin	confers resistance to coleopteran insects particularly corn rootworm by selectively damaging their midgut lining
mcry3A	synthetic form of cry3A gene from Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. tenebrionis	modified Cry3A delta-endotoxin	confers resistance to coleopteran insects particularly corn rootworm pests by selectively damaging their midgut lining
pmi  *	Escherichia coli	Phosphomannose Isomerase (PMI) enzyme	metabolizes mannose and allows positive selection for recovery of transformed plants

 * : Selection Marker/Reporter
