Products (1) Foods and food ingredients containing, consisting of, or produced from FG72 × A5547-127 soybean;

(2) Feed containing, consisting of, or produced from FG72 × A5547-127 soybean;

(3) FG72 × A5547-127 soybean in products containing it or consisting of it for any other use than those provided in points (1) and (2), with the exception of cultivation.
Designation Soybean FG72 × A5547-127, as described in the application, expresses the PAT protein, which confers tolerance to glufosinate ammonium-based herbicides, the 2mEPSPS protein, which confers tolerance to glyphosate-based herbicides and the HPPD W336 protein, which confers tolerance to isoxaflutole.
Labelling (1) For the purposes of the labelling requirements laid down in Article 13(1) and Article 25(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1829/2003, and in Article 4(6) of Regulation (EC) No 1830/2003, the ’name of the organism’ shall be ’soybean’;

(2) The words 'not for cultivation' shall appear on the label of and in the accompanying documents of the products containing or consisting the soybeans specified in (e) with the exception of foods and food ingredients.
Method for detection (1) A PCR detection method for soybean FG72 x A5547-127 has been developed. The detection method for soybean FG72 x A5547-127 is based on the validated detection methods that are available for genetically modified soybeans FG72 and A5547-127 (http://gmo-crl.jrc.ec.europa.eu/gmomethods/ ).

(2) Validated by the EU Reference Laboratory established under Regulation (EC) No 1829/2003, published at http://gmo-crl.jrc.ec.europa.eu/.
