[DIYbio] some mutated-food safety refs

I really couldn't find too much at all on the mutated foods...
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutation_breeding)

Has anyone seen a list of human food allergens and toxins anywhere? Something
that could be used as an panel of assays on the mutants. Seems like
the nightshade chemicals might be an easy marker to test a bunch of
varieties of tomatos and potatoes.


Microarray analyses reveal that plant mutagenesis may induce more
transcriptomic changes than transgene insertion
"Finally, we believe that safety assessment of improved plant
varieties should be carried out on a case-by-case basis and not simply
restricted to foods obtained through genetic engineering."

Are Mutations in Genetically Modified Plants Dangerous?
"One could react with a proposal to put also plants from induced
mutations under strict safety regulations. This would make sense only
if the mentioned 2543 varieties would have induced more frequently
biosafety problems then varieties from cross breeding. However, we are
not aware of any biosafety problem caused by an induced mutation of a
released variety or by an induced translocation. Apparently, the
common thorough evaluation of induced mutants at the phenotypic level
by the breeders suffices."
