1 Event refers to a single transformation event: the incorporation of a transgene into a plant genome. A single transformation event can be crossed into multiple lines.2 Tomato Event 5345 expressing Cry1Ac was deregulated by USDA APHIS but never received registration as a pesticide with the USEPA and was not commercialized anywhere in the world. It will not be considered elsewhere in this paper. 3 This includes approvals for lines generated through breeding and transformation with additional transgenes.
Lines means primary events developed through genetic engineering and stacked events derived through conventional crossing of primary events. 2 One line of potato (Solanum tuberosum) has also been approved that contains CP4 EPSPS as a selectable marker for tissue culture and it is included in Table 1 as an eighth species. Anecdotal evidence suggests this line is not functionally glyphosate resistant as a crop plant, however, and information related to this event is not further considered here.
X indicates a regulatory approval. * Stacked events that may be considered approved for environmental release based on existing approvals for the GE parent lines from which they are derived. Approvals require periodic renewal by regulation on pesticide registrations.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
