Insect resistance and glyphosate tolerance have been two of the most important traits in the genetic improvement of various crops. In this study, two
Bacillus thuringiensis
(Bt) insecticidal genes,
Cry1Ac
and
Cry1Ig
, and a modified glyphosate-tolerant 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (
EPSPS
) gene (
G10
) were combined into a single transferred DNA (T-DNA) fragment and introduced into rice by
Agrobacterium
-mediated transformation. A transgenic line with single-copy T-DNA insertion named GAI-14 was found to be highly resistant to striped stem borer and rice leaf roller, and tolerant to glyphosate. Analysis of T-DNA border sequence suggested that the transgenes were inserted at the chromosome 3 and appeared to have not interrupted any known or putative genes. A field trial observed no significant difference in the basic agronomic traits between GAI-14 and the recipient rice.
