Food produced from MON-Ø1445-2 cotton.
Feed produced from MON-Ø1445-2 cotton.
The genetically modified MON-Ø1445-2 cotton, as described in the application, expresses the CP4 EPSPS protein which confers tolerance to glyphosate-containing herbicides. An nptII gene, conferring kanamycin and neomycin resistance, and aadA gene, conferring spectinomycin and streptomycin resistance, were used as selective markers in the genetic modification process.
