The European Commission is organizing a high-level event to provide a forum for a transparent and constructive debate on how the EU could develop a regulatory framework on plants obtained by certain new genomic techniques (targeted mutagenesis and cisgenesis) that combines high levels of safety while reaping the benefits of innovation. Three panels will discuss the contribution of new genomic techniques to sustainability, risk assessment as well as traceability/labelling of products resulting from new genomic techniques.

In a recent paper published in Frontiers in Plant Science, the regulatory basis for an application of dsRNA-based plant protection products in the EU is presented in comparison with the USA.

The WGG (Wissenschaftlerkreis Grüne Gentechnik e.V, represented by Prof. Klaus Jany) together with the AFBV (Association Française des Biotechnologies Végétales) has published a position paper on the regulation of genome-edited plants in the European Scientist. The Society for Plant Biotechnology supports this proposal.
