Subpart A—General Provisions
§ 174.1 Scope and purpose.
The characteristics of plant-incorporated protectants such as their production and use in plants, their biological properties, and their ability to
spread and increase in quantity in the
environment distinguish them from
traditional chemical pesticides. Therefore, plant-incorporated protectants
are subject to some different regulatory requirements and procedures
than traditional chemical pesticides.
This part sets forth regulatory requirements, criteria, and procedures applicable to plant-incorporated protectants
under FIFRA and FFDCA. When applied
to
plant-incorporated
protectants, the definitions and regulations in this part supersede the regulations found in parts 150 through 180 of
this chapter to the extent that the regulations conflict. Unless otherwise superseded by this part, the regulations

§ 174.3

Definitions.

Terms used in this part have the
same meaning as in FIFRA. In addition, the following terms have the
meaning set forth in this section.
Active ingredient means a pesticidal
substance that is intended to be produced and used in a living plant, or in
the produce thereof, and the genetic
material necessary for the production
of such a pesticidal substance.
Administrator means the Administrator of the United States Environmental Protection Agency or his/her
delegate.
Bridging crosses between plants means
the utilization of an intermediate plant
in a cross to produce a viable zygote
between the intermediate plant and a
first plant, in order to cross the plant
resulting from that zygote with a third
plant that would not otherwise be able
to produce viable zygotes from the fusion of its gametes with those of the
first plant. The result of the bridging
cross is the mixing of genetic material
of the first and third plant through the
formation of an intermediate zygote.
Cell fusion means the fusion in vitro of
two or more cells or protoplasts.
Conventional breeding of plants means
the creation of progeny through either:
The union of gametes, i.e., syngamy,
brought together through processes
such as pollination, including bridging
crosses between plants and wide
crosses, or vegetative reproduction. It
does not include use of any of the following
technologies:
Recombinant
DNA; other techniques wherein the genetic material is extracted from an organism and introduced into the genome
of the recipient plant through, for example, micro-injection, macro-injection, micro-encapsulation; or cell fusion.
EPA means the United States Environmental Protection Agency.
Exudate means a substance gradually
discharged or secreted across intact
cellular membranes or cell walls and
present in the intercellular spaces or
on the exterior surfaces of the plant.

FFDCA means the Federal Food,
Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C. 321
et seq.).

Food includes articles used for food
or drink by humans or other animals.
Food plant means a plant which either in part or in toto, is used as food.
Genetic material necessary for the production means both: Genetic material
that encodes a substance or leads to
the production of a substance; and regulatory regions. It does not include
noncoding, nonexpressed nucleotide sequences.
Genome means the sum of the heritable genetic material in the plant, including genetic material in the nucleus
and organelles.
In a living plant means inside the living plant, on the surface of the living
plant, or as an exudate from the living
plant.
Inert ingredient, means any substance,
such as a selectable marker, other than
the active ingredient, where the substance is used to confirm or ensure the
presence of the active ingredient, and
includes the genetic material necessary for the production of the substance, provided that genetic material
is intentionally introduced into a living plant in addition to the active ingredient.
Living plant means a plant, plant
organ, or plant part that is alive, viable, or dormant. Examples of plant
parts include, but are not limited to,
seeds, fruits, leaves, roots, stems, flowers, and pollen.
Noncoding, nonexpressed nucleotide sequences means the nucleotide sequences
are not transcribed and are not involved in gene expression. Examples of
noncoding, nonexpressed nucleotide sequences include, but are not limited to,
linkers, adapters, homopolymers, and
sequences of restriction enzyme recognition sites.
Nucleic acids means ribosides or
deoxyribosides of adenine, thymine,
guanine, cytosine, and uracil; polymers
of the deoxyribose-5′-monophosphates
of thymine, cytosine, guanine, and adenine

ribonucleic acid). The term does not
apply to nucleic acid analogues (e.g.,
dideoxycytidine), or polymers containing nucleic acid analogues.
Pesticidal substance, means a substance that is intended to be produced
and used in a living plant, or in the
produce thereof, for a pesticidal purpose, during any part of a plant’s life
cyle (e.g., in the embryo, seed, seedling, mature plant).
Plant,
for
plant-incorporated
protectants, means an organism classified using the 5-kingdom classification
system of Whittaker in the kingdom
Plantae. This includes, but is not limited to, bryophytes such as mosses,

also includes any inert ingredient contained in the plant, or produce thereof.
Produce thereof, when used with respect to plants containing plant- incorporated protectants only, means a
product of a living plant containing a
plant-incorporated protectant, where
the pesticidal substance is intended to
serve a pesticidal purpose after the
product has been separated from the
living plant. Examples of such products
include, but are not limited to, agricultural produce, grains, and lumber.
Products such as raw agricultural commodities bearing pesticide chemical
residues are not ‘‘produce thereof’’
when the residues are not intended to
serve a pesticidal purpose in the
produce.
Recipient plant means the living plant
in which the plant-incorporated protectant is intended to be produced and
used.
Recombinant DNA means the genetic
material has been manipulated in vitro
through
the
use
of
restriction
endonucleases and/or other enzymes
that aid in modifying genetic material,

and subsequently introduced into the
genome of the plant.
Regulatory region means genetic material that controls the expression of
the genetic material that encodes a
pesticidal substance or leads to the
production of a pesticidal substance.
Examples of regulatory regions include, but are not limited to, promoters, enhancers, and terminators.
Sexually compatible, when referring to
plants, means a viable zygote is formed
only through the union of two gametes
through conventional breeding.
Source means the donor of the genetic
material that encodes a pesticidal substance or leads to the production of a
pesticidal substance.
Vegetative reproduction means either:
(1) In seed plants, reproduction by
apomixis, or
(2) In other plants, reproduction by
fragmentation, or division of the somatic body.
Wide crosses means to facilitate the
formation of viable zygotes through
the use of surgical alteration of the
plant pistil, bud pollination, mentor
pollen, immunosuppressants, in vitro
fertilization, pre-pollination and postpollination hormone treatments, manipulation of chromosome numbers,
embryo culture, or ovary and ovule
cultures.
§ 174.9 Confidential business information claims for plant-incorporated
protectant submissions.
Although it is strongly recommended
that the submitter minimize the
amount of data and other information
claimed as Confidential Business Information (CBI), a submitter may assert a
claim of confidentiality for all or part
of the information submitted to EPA
in a submission for a plant-incorporated protectant. (See part 2, subpart
B of this chapter.) To assert such a
claim, the submitter must comply with
all of the following procedures:
(a) Any claim of confidentiality must
accompany the information at the time
the information is submitted to EPA.
Failure to assert a claim at that time
constitutes a waiver of confidentiality
for the information submitted, and the
information may be made available to
the public, subject to section 10(g) of

exempt from the requirements of
FIFRA, other than the requirements of
§ 174.71, if it meets all of the following
criteria:
(a) The plant-incorporated protectant
meets the criteria listed in at least one
of the sections in §§ 174.25 through
174.50.
(b) When the plant-incorporated protectant is intended to be produced and
used in a crop used as food, the residues of the plant-incorporated protectant are either exempted from the requirement of a tolerance under FFDCA
(as amended, 21 U.S.C. 321 et seq.) as
codified at §§ 174.507 through 174.508, or
no tolerance would otherwise be required for the plant-incorporated protectant.
(c) Any inert ingredient that is part
of the plant-incorporated protectant is
on the list codified at § 174.705. Plantincorporated protectants that are not
exempt from the requirements of
