EU record number	Company/Institution	Host organism	Project title	Trait
B/BE/22/V3	VIB	Maize	Scientific field evaluation of maize with modified growth characteristics	The genetically modified maize plants have a mutation in the gene coding for a histon linker protein which leads to the inactivation of the gene. As a result, the plants have a significantly better growth during periods of drought.
B/BE/22/V2	VIB	Maize	Scientific field evaluation of maize with improved digestibility	The genetically modified maize plants have an altered composition of their cell wall resulting from the introduction of a mutation in the CCR1 and/or CCR3 genes. These mutations lead to the inactivation of these genes. The plants have up to 20% less lignin in their cell walls which is expected to contribute to a better digestibility of the maize thereby improving the feed conversion rate.
B/BE/22/V1	VIB	Maize	Scientific field evaluation of maize with increased resistance against DNA damage causing environmental stress	The genetically modified maize plants have a significantly better growth under environmental stress conditions that lead to DNA damage.
B/BE/10/V1	University of Ghent	Potato	Two year field trial with genetically modified potatoes that are less susceptible to late blight	Decreased susceptibility to late blight
B/BE/10/V2	BASF Plant Science	Potato	Application for the release into the environment of potato lines with improved resistance to Phytophtora infestans, 2011 and 2012	Improved resistance to Phytophtora infestans
B/BE/94/W14	SES SEEDS	Sugar beet	Field evaluation of sugar beet plants genetically modified to be tolerant to the herbicide glufosinate ammonium.	herbicide tolerance (glufosinate)
B/BE/94/WSP2	SES SEEDS	Sugar beet	Field evaluation of sugar beet plants genetically modified to be tolerant to the herbicide glufosinate ammonium.	herbicide tolerance (glufosinate)
