GlyTol™ x TwinLink™ Cotton

GHB614 x T304-40 x GHB119
Yes
BCS-GHØØ2-5 × BCS-GHØØ4-7 × BCS-GHØØ5-8
The stacked cotton line GlyTol™ x TwinLink™ was created through the conventional cross-breeding of the LM cotton lines GHB614, T304-40 and GHB119 to express Cry1Ab and Cry2Ae each of which expresses insecticidal crystal proteins thus conferring resistance against lepidoptera and 2mepsps and the bar gene which confer tolerance to the herbicides glyphosate and glufosinate, respectively.

The term “Recipient organism” refers to an organism (either already modified or non-modified) that was subjected to genetic modification, whereas “Parental organisms” refers to those that were involved in cross breeding or cell fusion.
