# Commission Decision of 22 December 2011 authorising the placing on the market of products containing, consisting of, or produced from genetically modified maize Bt11xMIR604 (SYN-BTØ11-1xSYN-IR6Ø4-5) pursuant to Regulation (EC) No 1829/2003 of the European Parliament and of the Council (notified under document C(2011) 9535) (Only the French text is authentic) (Text with EEA relevance) (2011/893/EU), Division (b): Designation and specification of the products

Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

(1) Foods and food ingredients containing, consisting of, or produced from SYN-BTØ11-1xSYN-IR6Ø4-5 maize;
(2) feed containing, consisting of, or produced from SYN-BTØ11-1xSYN-IR6Ø4-5 maize;
(3) products other than food and feed containing or consisting of SYN-BTØ11-1xSYN-IR6Ø4-5 maize for the same uses as any other maize with the exception of cultivation.
The genetically modified SYN-BTØ11-1xSYN-IR6Ø4-5 maize, as described in the application, is produced by crosses between maize containing SYN-BTØ11-1 and SYN-IR6Ø4-5 events and expresses the Cry1Ab protein which confers protection against certain lepidopteran pests, the PAT protein which confers tolerance to glufosinate-ammonium herbicides and the Cry3A protein which provides protection against certain coleopteran pests. A pmi gene, which allows transformed maize cells to utilize mannose as a sole carbon source, was used as a selectable marker in the genetic modification process for SYN-IR6Ø4-5 event.
