Foods and food ingredients containing, consisting of, or produced from SYN-IR6Ø4-5xMON-ØØØ21-9 maize;
feed containing, consisting of, or produced from SYN-IR6Ø4-5xMON-ØØØ21-9 maize;
products other than food and feed containing or consisting of SYN-IR6Ø4-5xMON-ØØØ21-9 maize for the same uses as any other maize with the exception of cultivation.
The genetically modified SYN-IR6Ø4-5xMON-ØØØ21-9 maize, as described in the application, is produced by crosses between maize containing SYN-IR6Ø4-5 and MON-ØØØ21-9 events and expresses the Cry3A protein which provides protection against certain coleopteran pests and the mEPSPS protein which confers tolerance to glyphosate herbicide. A pmi gene, which allows transformed maize cells to utilise mannose as a sole carbon source, was used as a selectable marker in the genetic modification process for SYN-IR6Ø4-5 event.
For the purposes of the specific labelling requirements laid down in Article 13(1) and Article 25(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1829/2003, and in Article 4(6) of Regulation (EC) No 1830/2003, the ‘name of the organism’ shall be ‘maize’;
the words ‘not for cultivation’ shall appear on the label of and in documents accompanying products containing or consisting of SYN-IR6Ø4-5xMON-ØØØ21-9 maize referred to in Article 2(b) and (c) of this Decision.
Event specific real-time quantitative PCR based methods for genetically modified maize SYN-IR6Ø4-5 and MON-ØØØ21-9 maize validated on SYN-IR6Ø4-5xMON-ØØØ21-9 maize,
