Characteristics

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 DAS-59122-7 expresses the Cry34Ab1 and Cry35Ab1 genes, which confer protection against certain coleopteran pests and the pat gene, which confers tolerance to glufosinate-ammonium-based herbicides.
The genetically modified maize DAS-4Ø278-9 expresses the aad-1 gene, which confers tolerance to 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and aryloxyphenoxypropionate (AOPP) herbicides.

Detection method

The quantitative event-specific PCR detection methods are those individually validated for genetically modified maize events MON-89Ø34-3, DAS-Ø15Ø7-1, MON-88Ø17-3, DAS-59122-7 and DAS-4Ø278-9 and further verified on maize stack MON 89034 × 1507 × MON 88017 × 59122 × DAS-40278-9.
