Monsanto Company; Availability of
Petition and Environmental
Assessment for Determination of
Nonregulated Status for Corn
Genetically Engineered To Express
High Lysine Levels
Animal and Plant Health
Inspection Service, USDA.
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: We are advising the public
that the Animal and Plant Health
Inspection Service has received a
petition from Monsanto Company,
seeking a determination of nonregulated
status for corn designated as
transformation event LY038, which has
been genetically engineered to express a
lysine-insensitive dihydrodipicolinate
synthase (cDHDPS) enzyme, which
allows for the accumulation of higher
levels of lysine in the germ of the seed.
Corn-soybean meal based diets
formulated for poultry and swine are
characteristically deficient in lysine and
require the addition of supplemental
lysine for optimal animal growth and
production. This corn product may
provide an alternative to
supplementation of feed with lysine.
The petition has been submitted in
accordance with our regulations
