Abstract
Plant-breeding technologies have expanded, accelerating breeding research beyond the confines of current regulations. The application of genome editing, such as CRISPR-Cas9, do not neatly fit into existing regulatory frameworks, creating uncertainty as to whether they can be regarded as conventionally developed varieties without further regulation. This research presents the current views of Canadian plant breeders based on a national survey of plant breeders. There is evidence that a review of existing regulations is required, as >60% anticipate the use of genome-editing technologies in the next few years. This paper reviews plant-breeding practices under the context of present plants with novel trait (PNT) regulations and where plant breeders place the use of CRISPR-Cas9 within the suite of available genome-editing options. This paper establishes when and why, or why not, breeders choose to introduce CRISPR-Cas9 into their research over other plant-breeding applications.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
