Abstract：
EFSA was asked by the European Parliament to provide a scientific opinion on the analysis by the French Agency for Food, Environmental and Occupational Health & Safety (ANSES) of Annex I of the European Commission proposal for a regulation \'on plants obtained by certain new genomic techniques (NGTs) and their food and feed, and amending regulation (EU) 2017/625\'. The Panel on genetically modified organisms (GMO) assessed the opinion published by ANSES, which focuses on (i) the need to clarify the definitions and scope, (ii) the scientific basis for the equivalence criteria and (iii) the need to take potential risks from category 1 NGT plants into account. The EFSA GMO Panel considered the ANSES analysis and comments on various terms used in the criteria in Annex I of the European Commission proposal and discussed definitions based on previous EFSA GMO Panel opinions. The EFSA GMO Panel concluded that the available scientific literature shows that plants containing the types and numbers of genetic modifications used as criteria to identify category 1 NGT plants in the European Commission proposal do exist as the result of spontaneous mutations or random mutagenesis. Therefore, it is scientifically justified to consider category 1 NGT plants as equivalent to conventionally bred plants with respect to the similarity of genetic modifications and the similarity of potential risks. The EFSA GMO Panel did not identify any additional hazards and risks associated with the use of NGTs compared to conventional breeding techniques in its previous Opinions.
摘要：
欧洲议会要求EFSA对法国食品署的分析提供科学意见，环境和职业健康与安全（ANSES）附件一欧盟委员会关于通过某些新基因组技术（NGT）获得的植物及其食品和饲料的法规的提案，并修订法规（欧盟）2017/625。转基因生物小组(GMO)评估了ANSES发表的意见，其中侧重于(I)澄清定义和范围的必要性，（ii）等效标准的科学依据，以及（iii）需要考虑第1类NGT工厂的潜在风险。EFSAGMO小组审议了ANSES分析和对欧盟委员会提案附件I标准中使用的各种术语的评论,并讨论了基于EFSAGMO小组先前意见的定义。EFSAGMO小组的结论是，现有的科学文献表明，含有遗传修饰类型和数量的植物作为标准，在欧盟委员会的提案中识别第1类NGT植物确实存在自发突变或随机诱变的结果。因此,在遗传修饰的相似性和潜在风险的相似性方面，将1类NGT植物视为与常规育种植物等效的科学依据。EFSAGMO小组在其先前的意见中没有发现与传统育种技术相比使用NGT相关的任何额外危害和风险。
