Description:
|
The soybean event DAS68416 was developed through Agrobacterium-mediated transformation with a T-DNA plasmid containing:
- the gene encoding aryloxyalkanoate dioxygenase (CS-aad12-DELAC) and conferring tolerance to the herbicides 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D),
- the phosphinothricin N-acetyltransferase gene (CS-pat-STRVR) conferring tolerance to glufosinate.
Southern blot analysis indicated that a single, intact insert of the aad-12 and pat genes were stably integrated into the soybean genome. Southern analyses also indicated the absence of the plasmid backbone DNA in DAS68416 soybean.
