this trait plants grown from this plant’s seeds were self-pollinated and
the next gen plants would have produced seeds w/ this new trait,
repeated breeding by self-pollination eventually leads to all maize Bt maize –
having larger cobs Bacillus thuringiensis, a soil bacterium, produces a
protein that kills many insect pests, especially maize earworm
