The EU is currently working on a legal framework for new genomic techniques (NGTs). A step that is long overdue. However, over the course of the legislative process, there have been recurring calls to deny basic patent protection to plants and plant material bred using NGTs, thereby weakening the established Biopatent Directive. This is not appropriate and threatens legal certainty far beyond the plant sector.
