美国FDA表示，近年来出现了改变植物等生物基因的基因技术。产生DNA序列改变的过程称为基因修饰。这项技术通过基因修饰使得开发新植物物种变得更为容易。开发者利用DNA基因信息，改变DNA序列进而改变在植物中性状的表达。
部分原文报道如下：
The Food and Drug Administration （FDA or we） is announcing the establishment of a docket to receive comments on the use of genome editing techniques to produce new plant varieties that are used for human or animal food. We invite comment on specific questions contained in this document related to foods derived from such genome edited plant varieties. FDA is taking this action to help inform our thinking about foods derived from new plant varieties produced using genome editing techniques.
