Summary of Basic Genetic Modification
| Gene Introduced | Gene Source | Product | Function |
| gm-fad2-1 (partial sequence) | Glycine max | no functional enzyme is produced (expression of the endogenous fad2-1 gene encoding omega-6 desaturase enzyme was suppressed by the partial gm-fad2-1 gene fragment) | blocks the formation of linoleic acid from oleic acid (by silencing the fad2-1 gene) and allows accumulation of oleic acid in the seed |
| dmo | Stenotrophomonas maltophilia strain DI-6 | dicamba mono-oxygenase enzyme | confers tolerance to the herbicide dicamba (2-methoxy-3,6-dichlorobenzoic acid) by using dicamba as substrate in an enzymatic reaction |
