BL2-P includes:

  • Experiments involving modification of plants by recombinant or synthetic nucleic acid molecules that are noxious weeds or can interbreed with noxious weeds in the immediate geographic area. Section III-E-2-b-(1). 
  • Experiments in which the introduced DNA represents the complete genome of a non-exotic infectious agent into plants. Section III-E-2-b-(2).
  • Plants associated with recombinant or synthetic nucleic acid molecule-modified non-exotic microorganisms that have a recognized potential for serious detrimental impact on managed or natural ecosystems. Section III-E-2-b-(3).
  • Plants associated with recombinant or synthetic nucleic acid molecule-modified exotic microorganisms that have no recognized potential for serious detrimental impact on managed or natural ecosystems. Section III-E-2-b-(4).
  • Experiments with recombinant or synthetic nucleic acid molecule-modified arthropods or small animals associated with plants, or with arthropods or small animals with recombinant or synthetic nucleic acid molecule-modified microorganisms associated with them if the recombinant or synthetic nucleic acid molecule-modified microorganisms have no recognized potential for serious detrimental impact on managed or natural ecosystems. Section III-E-2-b-(5).
