This passage discusses whether genome-edited agricultural products should be considered genetically modified organisms (GMOs) and how to prove definitively that a genome-edited organism does not contain exogenous DNA, taking social aspects into account.
A genome-edited agricultural product that is proven to contain no exogenous DNA is not subject to genetically modified organism (GMO) regulations in some countries. However, whether such proof is definitive is often disputed. We discuss the approaches to substantially proving that a genomeedited organism is not GMO, while considering social aspects.
