Scope

Main Technical Content: This standard comprehensively stipulates the safety management requirements and technical specifications for field trials of gene-edited crops, and is applicable to various field trials activities conducted in China using gene-editing technologies such as CRISPR/Cas9, TALENs, and ZFNs to obtain new crop varieties (lines). The standard covers the entire process management requirements for field trials, including trial site selection and site preparation, isolation measures, trial plan design, trial material management, environmental monitoring and risk assessment, data recording and file management, waste disposal, and site restoration. It applies to major crops such as rice, corn, wheat, soybean, cotton, and rapeseed, as well as genetically modified crops of significant economic value. For projects with a trial area of 1 mu or more, all provisions of this standard must be strictly implemented. For projects with a trial area of less than 1 mu, the main technical specifications may be referenced for implementation. The standard focuses on regulating field trials of gene-edited crops in open environments, including agronomic trait observation, yield determination, quality analysis, resistance identification, and environmental adaptability evaluation. In terms of technical applicability, the standard applies to genetic materials that do not contain exogenous gene insertions and only targetively modify endogenous genes of crops through gene-editing technologies, excluding recombinant DNA organisms obtained through transgenic technology. In terms of management, the standard applies to the entire process management from the approval of the trial plan to the completion of the trial and site restoration, excluding management requirements for the laboratory research and greenhouse trial phases. The standard does not apply to the following situations: First, field trials of conventional crop varieties cultivated by traditional breeding techniques; Secon
