Even if enough Fe is in the soil, deficiency can occur under the following conditions: poorly drained soil, high Ca, high Mn, high pH, high P, high heavy metals, oxygen deficiency. Deficiency symptoms General: Yellow or white areas on youngest leaves. Older leaves remain green.
Bt corn is a variant of maize that has been genetically altered to express one or more proteins from the bacteria Bacillus thuringiensis. The protein is poisonous to certain insect pests and is widely used in organic gardening. The European corn borer causes about a billion dollars in damage to corn crops each year.
Protein Gene:- The gene of interest which codes for a particular protein in inserted in the genome of the corn. Bt genes produce Cry proteins in the corn. Promoter:- Along with the Bt gene, a promoter is also inserted into the corn.The function of the promoter is to control the Cry protein and it also sees that how much protein is produced by the plant.rticle Summary: Bt corn is a genetically modified crop. A protein is inserted into the plant's genome which is extracted from the bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis. This bacterium increases the soil fertility. When insects eat this plant, they get starved and die as a result....
