Primary sources: USDA/APHIS, FDA, EPA; -, not present; §,
corn from Mycogen was filed together with corn from Ciba Seeds
at the EPA, representing products deriving from the same transformation
event; HT, herbicide-tolerant; pt, phosphinothricin; gly, Glyphosate;
br, bromoxinyl; su, sulfonylurea; IR, insect-resistant; L, Lepidopterae;
C, Coleopterae; MS, male sterile; PQ, product quality; frd, fruit
ripening delayed; op, oil profile altered; VR, virus-resistant.
1), further approvals from USDA were granted in 10/94, 11/94,
3/95, 7/95; 2) , registration of the first insect-resistant potato
from Monsanto (ID 11) also applies here; italics, data
given in italics were taken from sources other than the
responsible approving authorities (e.g. description of a related
product); 'altered' gene indicates changes in the gene sequence
that resulted in an alteration of the amino acid sequence of the
transgene product as compared to the protein encoded by the original
gene; 'synthetic' gene indicates a gene that was modified in such
a way that the codon usage was altered without changing the amino
acid sequence of the respective protein; nar, no approval required;
nar*, the EPA registers and approves pesticidal components (here,
these are the products of genes conferring insect or virus resistance)
in plants and the agency also registers the large-scale use of
herbicides (uoh) on transgenic plants (not the plants themselves).
The use of viral coat proteins in transgenic plants currently
does not require approval from EPA; √, use of herbicide (uoh) approved,
but no data available on the date of approval; US, United States;
