Division (ii) Each micro-organism that is subject to the application shall be identified and named at the species level. The scientific name and taxonomic grouping, i.e. family, genus, species, strain, serotype, pathovar or any other denomination relevant to the micro-organism, must be stated.

It must be indicated whether the micro-organism:

• is indigenous or non-indigenous at the species level to the intended area of application,

• is a wild type,

• is a spontaneous or induced mutant,

• has been modified, using techniques described in Part 2 of Annex IA and in Annex IB to Directive 2001/18/EC^f1 of the European Parliament and of the Council.

In the latter two cases, all known differences between the modified micro-organism and the parent wild strain must be provided.
