经过评估,转基因小组得出结论,就对人类和动物健康及环境的潜在影响而言,转基因玉米MON 94804与其传统对应品种和经过测试的非转基因玉米品种一样安全。部分原文报道如下:
Genetically modified (GM) maize MON 94804 was developed to achieve a reduction in plant height by introducing the GA20ox_SUP suppression cassette. The molecular characterisation and bioinformatic analyses do not identify issues requiring food/feed safety assessment. None of the agronomic/phenotypic and compositio
nal differences identified between maize MON 94804 and its co
nventional counterpart needs further assessment, except for ear height, plant height and levels of carbohydrates in forage, which do not raise safety or nutritio
nal concerns. The Panel on Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO Panel) does not identify safety co
ncerns regarding the toxicity and allergenicity of the GA20ox_SUP precursor-miRNA and derived mature miRNA as expressed in maize MON 94804 and finds no evidence that the genetic modification would change the overall allergenicity of maize MON 94804. In the co
ntext of this application, the co
nsumption of food and feed from maize MON 94804 does not represent a nutritio
nal co
ncern in humans and animals. The GMO Panel co
ncludes that maize MON 94804 is as safe as the co
nventional counterpart and non-GM maize varieties tested, and no post-market mo
nitoring of food/feed is co
nsidered necessary. In the case of accidental release of viable maize MON 94804 grains into the environment, this would not raise enviro
nmental safety concerns. The post-market enviro
nmental mo
nitoring plan and reporting intervals are in line with the intended uses of maize MON 94804. The GMO Panel co
ncludes that maize MON 94804 is as safe as its co
nventional counterpart and the tested non-GM maize varieties with respect to potential effects on human and animal health and the environment.
