# Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 503/2013 of 3 April 2013 on applications for authorisation of genetically modified food and feed in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1829/2003 of the European Parliament and of the Council and amending Commission Regulations (EC) No 641/2004 and (EC) No 1981/2006 (Text with EEA relevance), Division 1.3.7: Conclusion

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

The conclusion of the comparative analysis shall clearly state:
(a)whether agronomic and phenotypic characteristics of the genetically modified plant are, except for the introduced trait(s), different to the characteristics of its conventional counterpart and/or equivalent to the reference varieties, taking into account natural variation;
(b)whether compositional characteristics of the genetically modified food and feed are, taking into account natural variation, different to the characteristics of its conventional counterpart and/or equivalent to the reference varieties, except for the introduced trait(s);
(c)characteristics for which the genetically modified plant or the genetically modified food and feed are different to the characteristics of its conventional counterpart and/or not equivalent to the reference varieties taking into account natural variation, which need further investigation;
(d)whether, in the case of transformation events stacked by conventional crossing, there are indications of interactions between the combined transformation events.
