The genetically modified maize MON-89Ø34-3 expresses the cry1A.105 and cry2Ab2 genes, which confer protection against certain lepidopteran pests.

The genetically modified maize DAS-Ø15Ø7-1 expresses the cry1F gene, which confers protection against certain lepidopteran pests and the pat gene, which confers tolerance to glufosinate ammonium-based herbicides.

The genetically modified maize SYN-IR162-4 expresses the vip3Aa20 gene, which confers protection against certain lepidopteran pests. In addition, the pmi gene coding for the PMI protein was used as a selection marker in the genetic modification process.
