The GMO Panel assessed maize MON 95379 (EFSA, 2022a). The maize contains genes expressing two new insecticidal Bt proteins, Cry1B.868 andCry1Da_7.Cry1Da_7 and Cry1B.868 are modified versions of Bt toxins which do not occur in nature. Cry1Da_7 shows enhanced activity against corn earworm, Cry1B.868 was changed to make the Bt toxin more effective against fall armyworm.

The GMO Panel assessed the five-event stacked maize MON 89034 x 1507 x MIR162 x NK603 x DAS-40278-9, which is derived from crossing four genetically engineered maize events (EFSA, 2022a). The maize contains genes conferring resistance to four herbicides and produces six insecticidal proteins:• MON 89034 expressing Cry1A.105 and Cry2Ab2 insecticidal proteins;• 1507 expressing the weiterlesen

The EFSA GMO panel assessed the oilseed rape MON 94100 which was developed to confer tolerance to dicamba herbicide. Oilseed rape MON 94100 expresses two variants of the DMO protein: DMO and DMO + 27. The DMO protein demethylates dicamba, producing 3,6-dichlorosalicylic acid and formaldehyde, conferring tolerance to dicamba-based herbicides. The inserted gene construct involves weiterlesen

The EFSA GMO panel assessed the stacked maize DP4114 x MON810 x MIR604 x NK603 derived from crossing three genetically engineered maize events (EFSA, 2022a). The parental plants were assessed by EFSA in previous opinions. The maize contains genes conferring resistance to two herbicides: glufosinate and glyphosate, and produces five insecticidal cry proteins: • DP4114 weiterlesen

The EFSA GMO panel assessed the stacked maize NK603xT25xDAS-40278-9, which is derived from crossing three genetically engineered maize events (EFSA, 2021a). The parental plants were assessed by EFSA in previous opinions. The maize contains genes conferring resistance to three herbicides: glufosinate, glyphosate, 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and aryloxyphenoxypropionate (AOPP) herbicides:• NK603 expressing two variants of CP4 weiterlesen

Oilseed rape 73496 is genetically engineered to be herbicide-resistant to glyphosate. The oilseed rape expresses the glyphosate acetyltransferase protein GAT4621. Glyphosate inhibits the enzyme enolpyruvulshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS), which is involved in the biosynthesis of aromatic amino acids. GAT proteins acetylate glyphosate giving rise to N-acetyl glyphosate, which has no herbicidal activity. Implementing Regulation 503/2013 was weiterlesen
