Description
DAS-8191Ø-7 is cotton that has been modified to express aryloxyalkanoate dioxygenase-12 (AAD-12) and  phosphinothricin acetyltransferase (PAT), which confer tolerance to the herbicides 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and glufosinate respectively.

Notes regarding the genetic elements introduced or modified in this LMO
Southern blot analysis indicated that a single, intact insert of the aad-12 and pat genes were stably integrated into the cotton genome. Southern analyses also indicated the absence of the plasmid backbone DNA in DAS-8191Ø-7 cotton.
