Dr. McLoughlin has somewhat answered where my question was going. If we had a magic wand and if the directive or the EU's attitude were to change, it would not be a carte blancheCRISPR-Cas9 that would be acceptable to the witnesses. They would want to see it defined as non-crossing of genes. They would want it to stay within the gene of the specific plant or animal.
