Cotton developed against cotton boll  worms.  • Bacillus thuringensis is a soil bacterium that produces  proteins lethal to insect larvae affecting the digestive system of boll worms.  • The gene responsible for this effect is Cry-lAc.  • GM cotton is only crop permitted by Genetic Engineering Approval Committee (GEAC) under Ministry of Environment and Forestry first permitted on March, 2002.   • Bt. Cotton varieties developed by Mahyco: MECH-12,  MECH-162, MFCH-184 for Southern States and RCH-134,  RCH-138 suitable for Northern India.  • Mahyco collaborated with Monsanto to developed Bt.  Variety Bollgourd-1, using Cry -I Ac gene.  AgriYuvaa • Bt.
