Designation and specification of the products:

1. (1)

   foods and food ingredients containing, consisting of, or produced from genetically modified maize (Zea mays L.) referred to in point (e);

2. (2)

   feed containing, consisting of, or produced from genetically modified maize (Zea mays L.) referred to in point (e);

3. (3)

   genetically modified maize (Zea mays L.) referred to in point (e) in products containing them or consisting of them for uses other than those provided for in points (1) and (2), with the exception of cultivation.

DAS-Ø15Ø7-1 maize expresses the Cry1F protein which confers protection against certain lepidopteran pests and the PAT protein, which confers tolerance to glufosinate-ammonium-based herbicides.

DAS-59122-7 maize expresses Cry34Ab1 and Cry35Ab1 proteins which confer protection against certain coleopteran pests and the PAT protein, which confers tolerance to glufosinate-ammonium-based herbicides.

MON-ØØ81Ø-6 maize expresses the Cry1Ab protein, which confers protection against certain lepidopteran pests.

MON-ØØ6Ø3-6 maize expresses the CP4 EPSPS protein, which confers tolerance to glyphosate-containing herbicides.

Labelling:

1. (1)

   For the purposes of the labelling requirements laid down in Article 13(1) and Article 25(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1829/2003, and in Article 4(6) of Regulation (EC) No 1830/2003, the ‘name of the organism’ shall be ‘maize’;

2. (2)

   The words ‘not for cultivation’ shall appear on the label of and in the accompanying documents of the products containing or consisting the maize specified in (e) with the exception of foods and food ingredients.

Method for detection:

1. (1)

   The quantitative event-specific PCR detection methods for maize 1507 × 59122 × MON 810 × NK603 are those validated for genetically modified maize events DAS-Ø15Ø7-1, DAS-59122-7, MON-ØØ81Ø-6 and MON-ØØ6Ø3-6.
