(b)Designation and specification of the products:U.K.

(1)

foods and food ingredients containing, consisting of, or produced from DP-3Ø5423-1 × MON-Ø4Ø32-6 soybean;

(2)

feed containing, consisting of, or produced from DP-3Ø5423-1 × MON-Ø4Ø32-6 soybean;

(3)

DP-3Ø5423-1 × MON-Ø4Ø32-6 soybean in products containing it or consisting of it for any other use than those provided in points (1) and (2), with the exception of cultivation.

The genetically modified DP-3Ø5423-1 × MON-Ø4Ø32-6 soybean, as described in the application, has a reduced expression of the soybean enzyme omega-6 desaturase, which results in a high oleic acid and reduced linoleic acid profile, expresses an optimised Glycine max-hra gene, which confers tolerance to acetolactate synthase-inhibiting herbicides and expresses the CP4 EPSPS protein which confers tolerance to glyphosate herbicides.
