Details Information

Abstract: We are advising the public that the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service has received a petition from the University of Florida seeking a determination of nonregulated status for papaya genetically engineered for resistance to the papaya ringspot virus derived from a transformation event designated as X17-2. The petition has been submitted in accordance with our regulations concerning the introduction of certain genetically engineered organisms and products. In accordance with those regulations, we are soliciting comments on whether this genetically engineered papaya is or could be a plant pest. We are also making available for public comment a draft environmental assessment for the proposed determination of nonregulated status.
