澳新就一种孟山都转基因大豆用于食品征求意见

    食品伙伴网讯     据澳新食品标准局（FSANZ）消息，7 月15日澳新食品标准局就一种孟山都抗虫转基因大豆MON87751用于食品征求意见。该种大豆经过基因改造后，可抗鳞翅类害虫。本次征求意见截止日期为8月26日。

    部分原文报道如下：

    Application A1110 was submitted by Monsanto Australia Ltd on 20 February 2015. It seeks approval for food derived from insect-protected soybean line MON87751 with OECD Unique Identifier MON-87751-7 （also referred to as MON87751）。 MON87751 has been modified such that it is protected against lepidopteran pests of soybean.

    Protection against lepidopteran insect pests is achieved through expression of two Cry proteins （Cry1A.105 and Cry2Ab2） encoded by the cry1A.105 and cry 2Ab2 genes derived from the common soil bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis. The safety of the Cry1A.105 and Cry2Ab2 proteins has previously been assessed by FSANZ.
