However, the intent of this section is not to address gene transfer or other issues unique to specific plants that have been transformed to express these toxins. Such information is outside the scope of this section. It is intended that this section should be used in conjunction with specific plant species biology consensus documents when a biosafety assessment is made of plants with Bacillus thuringiensis 5-endotoxin-mediated insect protection. It was also agreed that this section would not address the issue of insect resistance management, designed to prevent or delay the onset of resistance to specific 5-endotoxins in insects exposed to these transgenic crops.
