Description
New Genomic Techniques have been developed after adoption of the Directive 2001/18/EC to introduce targeted changes in crop plant genomes potentially leading to new traits that can lead to more sustainable agriculture under the climate change. There are legal challenges for use of NGT plants in the EU, as they are still considered GMO, although some of them are not transgenic. The talk will address potential regulatory options for NGT plants with the aim to support the EC legal proposal for regulating NGT1 and NGT2 plants.
