Primary source: Health Canada; FR, Fertility resorer; italics,
data given in italics were taken from sources other than the
responsible approving authorities (e.g. description of a related product);
for abbreviations see glossary. Three products from Pioneer Hi-Bred
International were approved as novel foods by Health Canada:
(i) imidazolinone (herbicide) -tolerant, approved 5/94,
(ii) imidazolinone-tolerant canola, approved 4/95 and
(iii) 'High oleic acid/Low linoleic acid' canola (8/96);
However, these products are not transgenic, but were developed through
mutagenesis.
