Which of the protein encoded by gene controls corn borer? |
crylAb CrylAc CryllAb CryllAc |
crylAb |
The correct answer is Option (1) -crylAb Specific Bt toxin genes were isolated from Bacillus thuringiensis and incorporated into the several crop plants such as cotton . The choice of genes depends upon the crop and the targeted pest, as most Bt toxins are insect-group specific. The toxin is coded by a gene cryIAc named cry. There are a number of them, for example, the proteins encoded by the genes cryIAc and cryIIAb control the cotton bollworms, that of cryIAb controls corn borer. |
