ABSTRACT

SUMMARY The nutritional equivalency of grain produced from transgenic stacked-trait corn DAS-O15O71xDAS-59122-7xMON-OO81O-6xMON-OO6O3-6 (1507x59122xMON810xNK603) with combined insect resistance and herbicide tolerance was evaluated in a 42-d feeding trial with broiler chickens. Broilers consuming diets produced with grain from unsprayed or sprayed 1507x59122xMON810xNK603 corn plants performed as well as broilers consuming diets produced with nontransgenic near-isogenic control grain, and the broilers produced organ, carcass, and parts yields similar to those of broilers fed diets produced with the control grain. Additionally, all performance, organ, and carcass measures from the control, 1507x59122xMON810xNK603, and 1507x59122xMON810xNK603(S) groups were within the range of values from broilers fed diets containing nontransgenic commercially available hybrids. It was concluded, based on these results, that grain from 1507x59122xMON810xNK603 corn (unsprayed or sprayed with an herbicide mixture) was nutritionally equivalent to grain from nontransgenic near-isogenic corn.
