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.
