NUCLEIC ACID MOLECULE FOR THE TRANSGENIC CORN EVENT ME240913 EXPRESSING THE PROTEIN CRY1DA, TRANSGENIC CELL, PLANT AND SEED, USES THEREOF, PLANT PRODUCT, METHOD, KIT AND AMPLICON FOR DETECTING THE EVENT, AND METHODS FOR PRODUCING A TRANSGENIC PLANT AND CONTROLLING LEPIDOPTERAN INSECT PESTS

摘要

The present invention relates to a novel transgenic corn event expressing a truncated or modified form of the insecticidal protein Cry1Da designated event ME240913. The invention relates to the unique nucleic acids for the event ME240913. Primers, the amplicon, methods and kits for detecting the presence of the event ME240913 are also defined. The invention also relates to corn plants containing said event, uses thereof, methods and compositions for controlling lepidopteran insect pests. The invention describes a corn event that showed a high level of plant protection against damage caused by feeding by Lepidoptera, including S.frugirperda, and also insects resistant to Cry1F. The event of the invention was seen to be highly toxic for S.frugirperda.
