As the partly deficient toxin, Cry1Ab deficient in a part of the amino acid sequence is known. In the modified toxins, one or more amino acids of a natural toxin have been replaced.
Examples of such toxins and genetically modified plants capable of synthesizing such toxins are described in EP-A-0 374 753, WO 93/07278, WO95/34656, EP-A-0 427 529, EP-A-451 878, WO 03/052073, etc.
The toxins contained in such genetically modified plants impart resistance to insect pests of Coleoptera, insect pests of Diptera and insect pests of Lepidoptera to the plants.
Genetically modified plants containing one or more insecticidal insect-resistant genes and capable of producing one or more toxins have already been known, and some of them are on the market. Examples of such genetically modified plants include YieldGard® (a corn cultivar capable of producing Cry1Ab toxin), YieldGard Rootworm® (a corn cultivar capable of producing Cry3Bb1 toxin), YieldGard Plus® (a corn cultivar capable of producing Cry1Ab and Cry3Bb1 toxins), Herculex I® (a corn cultivar capable of producing phosphinotrysin N-acetyltransferase (PAT) for imparting resistance to Cry1Fa2 toxin and Glyfosinate), NuCOTN33B (a cotton cultivar capable of producing Cry1Ac toxin), Bollgard I® (a cotton cultivar capable of producing Cry1Ac toxin), Bollgard II® (a cotton cultivar capable of producing Cry1Ac and Cry2Ab toxins), VIPCOT® (a cotton cultivar capable of producing VIP toxin), NewLeaf® (a potato cultivar capable of producing Cry3A toxin), NatureGard®, Agrisure®, CB Advantage (Bt11 corn borer (CB) properties), and Protecta®.
The above-mentioned “crops” also include crops having an ability to produce an anti-pathogenic substance having selective action which has been imparted by a gene recombination technology.
As examples of the anti-pathogenic substance, PR proteins and the like are known (PRPs, EP-A-0 392 225). Such anti-pathogenic substances and genetically modified plants capable of producing them are described in EP-A-0 392 225, WO 95/33818, EP-A-0 353 191, etc.
Examples of such anti-pathogenic substances produced by the genetically modified plants include ion channel inhibitors such as sodium channel inhibitors, and calcium channel inhibitors (for example, KP1, KP4 and KP6 toxins produced by viruses are known); stilbene synthases; bibenzyl synthases; chitinase; glucanase; PR proteins; and anti-pathogenic substances produced by microorganisms, such as peptide antibiotics, antibiotics having a heterocyclic ring, and protein factors concerned in resistance to plant diseases (which are called plant-disease-resistant genes and are described in WO 03/000906).
The above-mentioned “crops” also include crops having two or more properties relating to the above-mentioned herbicide resistance, insect pest resistance, disease resistance and the like, which have been imparted by a classic breeding technique or a genetic recombination technology; and crops having two or more properties derived from parents which have been imparted by mating between genetically modified plants having the same or different properties.
