Bt brinjal NGO's spoke on the topic - the then Indian Environment Minister, Jairam Ramesh, facilitated a moratorium on its release until further, unspecified, tests were conducted. Bt brinjal was approved for commercial release in Bangladesh in 2013. Mahyco licensed and used the "cry1Ac" gene obtained from Monsanto and two supporting genes ("nptII" and "aad"). The "cry1Ac" gene is under the transcriptional control of an enhanced cauliflower mosaic virus 35S (CaMV35S) promoter, which ensures the gene is expressed in all the brinjal's tissue throughout its complete life cycle. "NptII" and "aad" are selectable marker genes, "nptII" is used to identify transgenic plants
Fruit in which part or all of the "pericarp" (fruit wall) is fleshy at maturity are "simple fleshy fruits". Types of simple, fleshy, fruits (with examples) include: An aggregate fruit, or "etaerio", develops from a single flower with numerous simple pistils. The pome fruits of the family Rosaceae, (including apples, pears, rosehips, and saskatoon berry) are a syncarpous fleshy fruit, a simple fruit, developing from a half-inferior ovary.
