| EU record number | Company / Institution | Host organism | Project title | Trait |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| B/BE/23/V4 | INARI Agriculture N.V. | Maize | R&D Field trial to evaluate the phenotype and yield of maize lines gene edited for optimised plant architecture | The edited maize lines have a shorter stature and larger biomass due to an edit in a transcription factor gene and a transcriptional coactivator gene resulting in an altered expression. Both edits impact together internode elongation and, hence, plant height and biomass quantity. |
| B/BE/23/V1 | INARI Agriculture N.V. | Maize | R&D Field trial to evaluate the phenotype and yield of maize lines gene edited for reduced height | The edited maize lines have a shorter stature due to an edit in a transcription factor gene resulting in an altered expression. This impacts internode elongation and, hence, plant height. |
| B/BE/21/V1 | VIB | Poplar | Field evaluation of poplars with a modified wood composition | Altered wood composition (less lignin and more cellulose) resulting from the downregulation of the Caffeoyl Shikimate Esterase (CSE) enzyme through RNAi. |
| B/BE/02/V1 | Plant Research International | Apple tree | Testing of genetically modified apple trees with enhanced resistance to fungi | fungal disease resistance (scab, mildew, fruit tree canker) |
| B/BE/02/VW4 | Aventis CropScience | Oilseed rape | Field evaluation with genetically modified pod shatter resistant oilseed rape | pod shatter resistance, herbicide tolerance (glufosinate) |
| B/BE/02/V5 | Aventis CropScience | Maize | Evaluation of new insect tolerant corn lines | insect resistance (European corn borer), herbicide tolerance (glufosinate/glyphosate) |
| B/BE/02/WSP6 | Warcoing-Chicoline | Chicory | Selection program of glufosinate tolerant chicory lines and families in view of the production of new synthetic varieties and tolerant hybrids | herbicide tolerance (glufosinate) |
| B/BE/02/V3 | Advanta/SES Europe | Sugar beet | Validation of a concept of long-term resistance to the rhizomania virus (beet necrotic yellow vein virus, BNYVV): field experimentation of sugar beet genetically modified to be resistant to rhizomania. | virus resistance (rhizomania virus: beet necrotic yellow vein virus, BNYVV), herbicide tolerance (glufosinate and bialaphos) |
