DP915635
Herbicide tolerance: 
Glufosinate
Transformation Method: 
Agrobacterium tumefaciens
Particle bombardement
Inserted gene: 

Insecticidal protein gene ipd079Ea from fern; pat, pmi.
The genetic intervention involved a multistep process using CRISPR/Cas to introduce a ‘landing pad’ at the target site, where the gene constructs for the production of new proteins (new traits) are subsequently inserted.
