Stacked insect resistant and glyphosate tolerant maize derived from conventional cross-breeding of the parental lines MON810 (OECD identifier: MON-ØØ81Ø-6) and MON88017 (OECD identifier:MON-88Ø17-3).  European corn borer (ECB) resistance is derived from a truncated form of the <i>cry1Ab</i> gene from <i>Bacillus thuringiensis</i> subsp. kurstaki HD-1 present in MON810.  Corn rootworm resistance is derived from the <i>cry3Bb1</i> gene from <i>Bacillus thuringiensis</i> subspecies <i>kumamotoensis</i> strain EG4691 present in MON88017.  Glyphosate tolerance is derived from a 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS) encoding gene from <i>Agrobacterium tumefaciens</i> strain CP4 present in MON88017.
