HEYAAAAA,,,
Bt cotton is a genetically modified crop. ... Bt stands for Bacillus thuringiensis - a soil bacterium which contains a toxic gene called Bt gene.
Bt cotton is a genetically modified organism (GMO) or genetically modified pest resistant plant cotton variety, which produces an insecticide to bollworm.
About ten years ago, Monsanto scientists inserted a toxin gene from the bacterium called Bt (which is the nickname for Bacillus thuringiensis) into cotton plants to create a caterpillar-resistant variety. The gene is DNA that carries the instructions for producing a toxic protein.
