Maize MON89034xNK603

Trait: The hybrid MON89034xNK603 expresses two novel insecticidal proteins: The Bt-toxins cry1A.105 and cry2Ab2 which confers resistance to the lepidopterans and conferring tolerance to the herbicide Roundup (with the active ingredient glyphosate).
Inserted genes (MON89034):
cry1A.105 and cry2Ab2	Source: Bacillus thuringiensis Function: The toxins protects the plant from the Lepidopteran insects, fall armyworm (Spodoptera sp.), black cutworm (Agrotis ipsilon), european corn borer(Ostrinia nubilalis) and the corn earworm (Helicoverpa zea).
Inserted genes (NK603):
cp4 epsps- gene	Source: Soil bacterium Agrobacterium ssp. strain CP4 Function: The CP4 EPSPS gene encodes for a version of EPSPS Enzyme that is highly tolerant to inhibition by glyphosate.
Methods for the genetic modification: Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated gene transfer.
