Malaysia is a major importer of commodity crops such as maize and soybean. Importationof genetically-modified (GM) crops for the purpose of planting or food, feed and processing (FFP) requires approval from the National Biosafety Board (NBB). Most of the imported maize and soybean are GM varieties, and some of these are modified using multiple transgene inserts ('stacked events'). The risk assessment process for these cropsis complicated, as the presence of two or several transgenes in one organism can lead to interactions and unintended effects, which may not be immediately evident. To overcomethis problem, metabolomics profiling was proposed for immediate analysis on risk assessment of GM crops. These 'fingerprinting' techniques are data-rich and allow for the comparison of differences in the entire metabolite profiles and may provide useful insights in the evaluation of stacked events GM crops. This study aims to evaluate if metabolomics can detect differences between a GM plant and its non-GM near isogenic counterpart, and if this analysis can detect unintended effects of GM soybean with stacked events under controlled environments. GM soybeans with single Pat and CrylAb transgenes and stacked Pat-CrylAb transgenes were constructed in the same genetic background and grown under controlled conditions in the laboratory, and metabolomics analysis were then performed using leaf samples.
