In this conflict of propoganda and misinformation I rarely take anyones word for things, and instead will try and check the information myself.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Russian has carried out a very effective tactic of lies and misinformation so far, and anything (and I mean anything) that they say has to be taken with a pinch of salt.
For months Russia have been denying supplying weapons, ammunition and trained merceneries to Eastern Ukraine, then 3 days ago an independent journalist, and numerous OSCE observers, spotted a convoy of tanks, APC's and armed military heading through a Russian border post and heading down seperatist held territory towards Lugansk. Of course Russia immediately denied this (another lie from them) but with independent witnesses and photographic evidence it's only the most easily taken in that will actually believe the denial.
With regards to MH17, you just need to ask yourself a couple of simple questions.
Why would someone want to shoot it down?
What would they have to gain by shooting it down?
It's easy to blame one side or the other as the war of misinformation fires back and forth, but it takes a bit more brain-power to start asking the questions and properly researching the claims and counter-claims.

Configuring the AuFS filesystem for terminal clients
AuFS offers a painless filesystem for a thin client, and FS-Cache provides a persistent cache.
A thin client is often an attractive option for server-based computing environments. Thin clients save on hardware and administrative overhead by minimizing client configuration and concentrating resources on the server side. The very versatile Linux is an excellent option for a thin-client operating system; however, because one of the primary reasons for a thin client is to save administration time, it is important for the thin client to be as close as possible to an ordinary Linux computer. The root filesystem configuration, for instance, should resemble as closely as possible the configuration for a normal Linux system.

Wishing All a Happy & Blessed Easter 2016 from Scared Monkeys: HE IS RISEN. TRUELY, HE IS RISEN
He is risen, truly, He is risen. Sorry, I have been out of town this weekend visiting friends. Wishing everyone the happiest of Easters! Please remember that Easter represents the true meaning of hope eternal and the rebirth of our Lord Jesus Christ as he died and rose again. As you have your Easter egg hunts, open your Easter baskets and enjoy Easter dinner, please remember that the resurrection of our Lord provides us with eternal hope and rebirth.
Raise your joys and triumphs high, Alleluia!
Sing, ye heavens, and earth reply, Alleluia!
Love's redeeming work is done, Alleluia!
Fought the fight, the battle won, Alleluia!
Death in vain forbids him rise, Alleluia!
Christ has opened paradise, Alleluia!
Lives again our glorious King, Alleluia!
Where, O death, is now thy sting? Alleluia!
Once he died our souls to save, Alleluia!
Where's thy victory, boasting grave? Alleluia!
Soar we now where Christ has led, Alleluia!
Following our exalted Head, Alleluia!
Made like him, like him we rise, Alleluia!
Ours the cross, the grave, the skies, Alleluia!
Hail the Lord of earth and heaven, Alleluia!
Praise to thee by both be given, Alleluia!
Thee we greet triumphant now, Alleluia!
Hail the Resurrection, thou, Alleluia!
King of glory, soul of bliss, Alleluia!
Everlasting life is this, Alleluia!
Thee to know, thy power to prove, Alleluia!
Thus to sing, and thus to love, Alleluia!
One of my favorite singers and songs … Michael W. Smith – Above All
Crucified, laid behind a stone
You lived to die rejected and alone
Like a rose trampled on the ground
You took the fall and thought of me
Above all
Luke 24:1-6
On the first day of the week, very early in the morning, the women took the spices they had prepared and went to the tomb. They found the stone rolled away from the tomb, but when they entered, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. While they were wondering about this, suddenly two men in clothes that gleamed like lightning stood beside them. In their fright the women bowed down with their faces to the ground, but the men said to them, "Why do you look for the living among the dead? He is not here; he has risen!
I'll never know how much it cost to see my sin upon that cross.
I'll never know how much it cost to see my sin upon that cross.
And I'll never know how much it cost to see my sin upon that cross.
No I'll never know how much it cost to see my sin upon that cross.
Here I am to worship,
Here I am to bow down,
Here I am to say that you're my God,
You're altogether lovely,
Altogether worthy,
Altogether wonderful to me.
So Here I am to worship,
Here I am to bow down,
Here I am to say that you're my God,

Pope Francis issues Christmas Day Prayer … Calls For Prayers for Syria, Libya Peace and Condemns Radical-Islamic "Brutal Acts of Terrorism"
Today, Pope Francis issued a Christmas Day prayer from the central balcony of St. Peter's Basilica in Rome that called for peace for Syria and Libya, prayers for the suffering and denounced the radical Islamist "monstrous evil" and atrocities." The Pope made reference to the heinous terror attacks in Paris earlier this year. He also made mention of the attacks in Egypt's airspace and in Beirut, Mali and Tunisia. The Pope further went in to denounce the ongoing conflicts in Africa, the Middle East and Ukraine and issued words of consolation to Christians being persecuted for their faith in many parts of the world. Isn't it quite amazing that pretty much all that the Pope is referencing as "monstrous evil" and atrocities" is at the hands of radical Islam? The Pope stated, "Only God's mercy can free humanity from the many forms of evil, at times monstrous evil, which selfishness spawns in our midst."
Pope Francis issued a Christmas Day prayer that recent U.N.-backed peace processes for Syria and Libya will quickly end the suffering of their people, denouncing the "monstrous evil" and atrocities they have endured and praising countries that have taken in refugees.
Speaking from the central balcony of St. Peter's Basilica, Francis issued a plenary indulgence for all Catholics in hopes of spreading the church's message of mercy in a world torn by war, poverty and extremist attacks. The sun-soaked St. Peter's Square was under heavy security, as it has been since the Nov. 13 Paris attacks by Islamic extremists that left 130 dead.
An indulgence is an ancient church tradition related to the forgiveness of sins. Francis announced it after delivering his annual "Urbi et Orbi" (To the city and the world) speech listing global hotspots and his prayers for an end to human suffering.
Francis referred to the "brutal acts of terrorism" that struck the French capital this year, as well as attacks in Egypt's airspace and in Beirut, Mali and Tunisia. He denounced the ongoing conflicts in Africa, the Middle East and Ukraine and issued words of consolation to Christians being persecuted for their faith in many parts of the world.
"They are our martyrs of today," he said.

MERRY CHRISTMAS 2015 FROM SCARED MONKEYS … JOY TO THE WORLD, THE LORD HAS COME … "A Savior has Been Born to You"
On this most joyous of special days we would like to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and to ask all to always remember the true reason for the season.

And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.
For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, which is Christ the Lord.
And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.
And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,
Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men
And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from them into heaven, the shepherds said one to another, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us.
And they came with haste, and found Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying in a manger (Luke 2:10-16)

Sultan of Brunei Threatens Muslims Who Celebrate Christmas With Up to 5 Years in Prison … Intended to Control the Act of Celebrating Christmas Excessively & Openly, Which Could Damage the Beliefs of the Muslim Community
Sounds like a modern day Burgermeister Meisterburger … Talk about your War on Christmas. The Sultan of Brunei is warning residents of that if they plan on celebrating Christmas, they could face up to five years in jail. UNREAL, because Muslim countries are so tolerant, eh? So why arrest those who would dare celebrate Christmas or make plans to organize Christmas get-together's? It is being done so in fear that celebrating Christmas will affect the faith of its country. In a statement from the Ministry of Religious Affairs, "These enforcement measures are…intended to control the act of celebrating Christmas excessively and openly, which could damage the aqidah (beliefs) of the Muslim community."
So Muslims countries across the world can ban Christian religious celebrations and threaten individuals with jail time, but Muslims can come to the United States and celebrate their religion without any consequences what-so-ever and in many cases radicalize in mosques without a damn thing done to them.
The super-rich ruler of Brunei has told residents of his country that if they plan on celebrating Christmas, they could face up to five years in jail.
In fear the the religious holiday will affect the faith of its country, the tiny oil-rich nation's Sultan, Hassanal Bolkiah, has banned the public celebration of Christmas.
Any Muslims caught celebrating Christmas, and non-Muslims who are discovered organising celebrations, could face the lengthy prison sentence.
While non-Muslims are allowed to celebrate the holiday within their own communities, they must not disclose their plans to the nation's Muslims – which make up 65 per cent of the 420,000-strong population.
Around 20 per cent of Brunei's residents are non-Muslim, including substantial Buddhist and Christian communities.
'These enforcement measures are…intended to control the act of celebrating Christmas excessively and openly, which could damage the aqidah (beliefs) of the Muslim community,' said the Ministry of Religious Affairs in a statement.
Freedom of Religion is obviously in the Bill of Rights of the United States Constitution; however, how does a free and open society deal with a religion which is allowed to operate under "freedom of religion" which looks to spread and become the only region, even if by force?

Away in a Manger … Newborn Baby Discovered in New York Church's Baby Jesus Nativity Scene
A new born baby was discovered at the Holy Child of Jesus Church in New York in the Nativity scene in the manger. The baby still had the umbilical cord attached and was thought to be only a few hours old. The child was rushed to Jamaica Hospital for treatment, but was said to be healthy and in stable condition. The unknown mother obviously did not follow New York's "safe haven" law when she abandoned the baby in the manger, but on the bright side, she did not abort it and now one of God's children has a chance to be adopted and live the rest of its life.
New York has a so-called safe haven law that says a newborn can be dropped off anonymously at a church, hospital, police or fire station without fear of prosecution. But the law, known as the Abandoned Infant Protection Act, requires that the child be left with someone or for authorities to be called immediately.
Police said that didn't happen in this case, which led investigators to begin searching for the person who dropped the child at the church.
The custodian on duty at the Holy Child of Jesus Church in New York this week beheld a scene straight out of Scripture. Hearing the sound of a baby's cry, he found a newborn wrapped in towels lying inside, of all places, the wooden manger of the church's nativity scene.
The infant, who weighed about 5 pounds, still had his umbilical cord attached. As emergency crews arrived to take him to the Jamaica Hospital in Queens, his eyes remained closed, his slight arms outstretched towards the sky.
"For unto us a child is born," Rev. Christopher Ryan Heanue announced on the parish's Facebook page. "Let us pray for this child, for his parents and for whomever will receive him into their home."
The identity of the baby's mother is still unknown, though police told the New York Times that a video shows a woman arriving with the baby and departing without him. She likely entered the church between 11:30 a.m. and 1 p.m. Monday, the period in which the custodian left the empty chapel for lunch.
Doctors said the baby had been born just four to five hours before he was found, and police told the Associated Press that he is in good health.
UPDATE I: Mother Who Left Baby in NYC Nativity Manger Won't Be Charged.
A mother who left her newborn baby in a Christmas manger inside a New York City church will not be prosecuted, authorities said Wednesday.
"After a full review of all the facts and circumstances surrounding the discovery of a newborn infant this past Monday in a creche inside of Holy Child Jesus Church in the Richmond Hill section of Queens County – including locating and interviewing the mother – my office has determined that no criminal prosecution of the child's mother is warranted," Queens District Attorney Richard Brown said in a statement.

To all forum participants,
I have just purchased a full version of True image acronis 2013.
I encountered a problem selecting destination drive while in the cloning process.
My source drive is seagate 1TB, attached within a desktop computer.
My destination drive is a seagate 2TB attached to the desktop computer via powerd usb connection.
The new seagate 2Tb is working fine as I have formated and partition it through windows device manager. I have even saved files to the new 2TB drive.
Please advise how where my issues are. Things should be pretty much straight forward but not in this case.
Are you trying to clone from within Windows or from the recovery CD? If from within Windows (not recommended) you could try using the True Image 'Add Disk' utility and then see if it can see the drive. It is better to clone from the recovery CD so that Windows cannot lock any files or RAM space.
Is the 2TB drive a hybrid one?
When you accessed the 2TB drive was it attached to the same USB port? It might be worth trying a different port or caddy.
What will probably work is to swap the drive positions, put the source drive into the external caddy and the new drive into the PC and reverse clone booting from the Recovery CD.
Hi Colin,
Thanks for replying.
I have tried both from within windows vista64 and boot up using the boot media CD. Both have given me the same result.
The 2TB is pure SATA disk drive not hybrid.
I have also tried different USB port.
I have also tried the clone process using a different computer running windows 7. The same result. Destination drive greyed out.
I seriously think there is a flaw in the software program. If it is not a flaw, it has to be design issue.
I am frustrated and disappointed with the program. Why? I have been reading about the same issues that other people has encountered.
Hi Eric, Colin,
I have purchased TI 2013 for the same reason as above and have exactly the same issue. Why I think that it is definitely a software/product issue is that I have done exactly the same 'cloning' function from a 500GB, x4 partition drive to a WD 1TB (staging) drive. This worked just as the documentation says. All I want to do is exactly the same from the WD 1TB to a WD 2TB which is going into a NAS drive.
All seems OK until I get to the 'Destination Drive' section which is ALWAYS greyed out!!
This is so frustrating and now I feel that i have wasted my money and am looking for freeware Linux cloning tools like Ping or others like Odin..
Anyone who can assist or knows what the problem is please could you let me know?
Why would you Clone to an NAS? You can't boot Windows from an NAS. If there is some purpose, please explain it.
You would be better to do a full disk mode Backup.
Better to read the following link that will explain it better than I could: -
Its to upgrade the disk from a 500GB to 2TB. I have outgrown the smaller disk and this seemed the logical option without replacing the entire device.
Would have been simple had the second stage of my cloning worked!!
I am having the same problem as well..
Trying to clone from a 500gb to a 1tb drive.
I get a message saying "Failed to move the selected data. Make sure that your new hard drive is not smaller than your old one and that your partitions do not contain errors. You can check for errors and correct them using a special utility."
I have used Acronis countless times in the past with previous versions, with no problem.
So apparently there REALLY is something wrong in this release.
I, too, am having this problem. I just want to clone my laptop's hard drive to a new drive, as the old one is dying. I have the new drive connected via a USB-to-SATA adapter, and my computer can see it. I've tried the "add new device" multiple times and always the drive shows up when I have to choose a source drive, and is grayed out when I have to choose the target drive.
I even bought the software thinking the free Seagate DiskWizard might not be able to do this, but the licensed True Image 2013 is doing the exact same thing.
I never got to the bottom of the problem but I am disappointed with this new version of Acronis 2013. I used an older version for XP which was just amazing and recovered and upgraded HD's on numerous occasions with no problem.
With regard to the above I dumped the cloning option and found my NAS actually had to intelligence to see a new drive/problem and was able to rebuild all the necessary partitions it's self. I then copied all the data I had on the old drive manually from a back up drive.
Like everyone else here I have v2013 and am trying to clone a 4TB internal HDD to a USB external HDD of the same size. Once I select the internal drive to clone from, the external one greys out and nothing useful can be selected. This is really silly. Even if a smaller size it SHOULD continue as long as the data fits, but its not smaller. I note that my other internal 4TB rives that are the same size are not greyed out, only the external HDD in a case. Could this be of any less use?
I am using Win7, all updates, 64Bit.
I went and found a free portable app and its now in the process of cloning these disks right now. So why cant acronis do it?
I had the same issue where all of my partitions were grayed out. I was on the phone for 2 hours with Acronis support and they couldn't figure it out. I think there's a bug and it won't let you restore to a smaller drive/partition even if the used space fits on the smaller drive. Everything worked fine if the partition was the same size or larger. If anyone can figure out how to get around this, I'd appreciate a response. I couldn't restore my backup to an SSD drive.
Also suffering from this issue. I had a True Image 2013 daily backup set up to a NAS and then the hard drive died.
I therefore replaced the 2,5" 250GB Harddisk with a 2,5" 120GB Solid-State-Disk and wanted to restore to this SSD using the latest Acronis Rescue CD (True Image 2013 German, Build 6514).
However, no matter what I did, the destination remained grey and nothing I did was able to change that (fearing that it might have to do with something that was previously on the SSD, I wiped the drive, reinitialized it as MBR). The backups filesystem was in a consistent state (certainly not a sector-by-sector backup) and of the 250GB only a little above 50GB was actually in use.
That such a basic functionality of True Image doesn't work is quite a bug. Wonder if that never came up during testing or if someone said "ah, too much trouble to fix this, let's put it on the list for TI 2014".
I suspect Acronis was trying to be 'smart' and grayed out drives where the restore wouldn't fit. However they seem to be looking at total size of the original drive, not the actual usage. That was a huge oversight. They advertise you can restore this way and their support representative was trying to tell me how to do it. It's clearly a bug in my mind. I was lucky enough to catch this when I bought the software and was able to get a refund. If it ever gets fixed, I'd appreciate it if someone posted it here. I still may go back to Acronis since it gets good reviews. For now, I had to go elsewhere since this feature was important to me.
I don't think it has anything to do with the size of the second drive. I have tried to backup to a drive that is 250 GB larger, physically, not just the amount of free space, and the same thig happened.
What program did you find?
What program did you find?
Ouch. For me, it was just a problem with smaller drives. I assumed I could restore to a larger drive, shrink the partition, and then restore the smaller partition to the smaller drive. Sounds like that wouldn't work. Is there any workaround? How do you get the backup restored?
Ouch. For me, it was just a problem with smaller drives. ... How do you get the backup restored?
No idea. I am so frustrated. I am not doing a backup and restore, just trying to clone my drive before it dies (don't even get me started on the fact that a two-year old drive is dying!).
And, if that drive is dying, stop using it!
The more you use it the more likely you will permanently lose data. Use the ATI bootable Rescue Media to create the backup.
Oh I have also done a complete backup (sorry, I should have said that), that is just not what I am trying to do *now*. I tried booting from a disk but still had trouble. I will try that again. After that, it is off to the hole-in-the-wall computer shop.
I don't think it has anything to do with the size of the second drive. I have tried to backup to a drive that is 250 GB larger, physically, not just the amount of free space, and the same thig happened.
For me, a bigger destination drive solved it. I was trying to do a restore from a NAS storage, not a cloning (which is what I gather you are trying to do).
Due to the Acronis problems I had to replace a broken 250GB HDD with a 480GB SSD. Slight waste of money. I will have to shrink this sometime next week and recover my valuable 480GB SSD from this box. Had no other choice but to use the 480GB SSD - system had to work again ASAP.
I just fought this same battle. My situation was a dying 5400RPM 320GB drive in a laptop, being replaced with a 320GB SSD. Everytime I selected the new drive as a destination disk the drive was greyed out and unselectable. I used the Add New Disk wizard to create both MBR and GPT partition tables, tried using Windows to create a partition, tried with no disk init. done at all without success.
What fixed it for me was the drive connector - I was using a SATA--> USB adapter cable kit. I dismantled my small HDD enclosure and used that instead of the kit and the drive was then selectable as a destination. So, my advice is to try and mount up both HDDs as SATA and if you absolutely have to use USB then have a secondary USB connector ready just in case.
I've never had issues attaching a drive via USB with this kit before so I found this quite odd. Must be my kit dying on me.
ON the failed attempt, was the SSD mounted inside the computer (as Acronis recommended) prior to receiving the clone with the dying disk being mounted outside?
Dying SSD was inside the laptop and not touched yet. I always mount drive that is the destination via USB. No reason other than laziness (if it doesn't work, I don't need to disassemble)
Same for me. The destination was attached via USB.
Try placing the destination drive inside the PC in the same position that the current drive is in and the current drive externally.
Some BIOS's require this setup so that manufacturers drive layouts can be copied across correctly.
Maybe applicable elsewhere. In my case simply changing USB controllers was enough to get it to work.
Just want to endorse the last posters fix - I was also using a multipurpose powered USB adapter for a SATA SSD, and having the same experience as everyone else - the external SSD was grayed out and could not be selected. After reading this post I grabbed an external USB SATA enclosure that I had (non-powered) and put the SSD in that. Then it was fine, and I'm able to clone to the external SSD.
A couple of other notes -
This is the third SATA clone I've done recently, one on a Kingston where I used EaseUS because the drive came with no software, one on a Samsung that came with it's own disk for cloning, and this one - a Crucial that came with a license key for Acronis. The Acronis was the only one that didn't work first time, out of the box, using my USB-SATA adapter. Given that it came with the drive, that's kind of a bummer.
Also, I don't see the need to move your drive inside your machine and boot from a recovery disk. None of the others even mentioned that. Each just "did the right thing" with the external SSD, fixing partitions, cloning the drive, and making it bootable. After that, I just replaced the original drive with the SSD, and it worked as expected.
Anyway, thanks to Sean for posting about the different enclosure! I was just about to go back to the free version of EaseUS...
Ok so I am also having this issue, and it's incredibly frustrating. I decided to try Macrium and tried doing the backup that way. Again wasn't able to, but was given additional information on the issue we might be having. I get an error pop up that says "Incompatible Disk Selected: The target disk has a incompatible sector size for this operation. Please choose a different disk. For more information visit: http://kb.macrium.com/KnowledgebaseArticle50193.aspx"
So I visited that site and it says:
The error indicates that the target disk has a larger sector size than the source or you are using a USB disk enclosure that is changing the reported sector size of the disk. This is not supported.
The table below shows compatible disks for the source and target of restore and clone operations:
Source Sector Size------------ Target Sector Size
512 or 512e------------ 512 or 512e (Yes)
512 or 512e------------ 4096 No
4096--------------------- 512 or 512e (Yes)
4096--------------------- 4096 (Yes)
I went to 'system information' --> 'storage' --> 'disks' to check the size of my target and source sectors and sure enough, my target was 4096, and my source is 512. I guarantee you that's the prob the rest of you are confronting. That link I provided gives info on ways to possibly solve.
Issue can now be closed

BINGO! Thanks Snipercatz!
When I checked my disk info I got the same result: Source 512, Target 4096.
So I looked around my desk and found a Seagate Freeagent GoFlex sitting in a drawer. It is a straight USB connection with no power so I thought I'd cannibalize the case and see if that worked. As it turned out, the connector portion just snaps right off and fits perfectly onto the new SSD drive. Fired up Acronis True Image 2015, went to the Clone, and everything took off the way it should.
I'm curious if this is specific to the powered USB drive adapters, the SSD drive or the combination of the powered USB drive adapters + an SSD drive. I've used the Acronis clone tool in versions 2011, 2013, 2014 with the same USB adapter with no issues but it was always on a conventional SATA drive, not SSD.
I had to get a refund because of this issue. That was 2 years ago. I'm glad someone finally found the cause. If Acronis had told me this way back then, I would have stayed with the product. Seemed decent but restoring to a smaller drive was a deal breaker for me.
I had this problem while attempting to clone a 1TB Samsung SATA drive to a wiped (Diskpart's CLEAN command) 500GB Western Digital PATA drive using a bootable CD of Acronis TrueImage WD Edition 2015. The Samsung contained four partitions, one with a bootable installation of Windows 10, and the data was small enough to fit on the WD. The WD showed as greyed out. I used an older version of the program (Acronis TrueImage WD Edition 2012) and it did not grey out the drive, and successfully cloned to it. So this error probably has something to do with cloning to smaller drives, possibly across architectures and brands; is likely a bug due to lack of documentation or reasoning given by the program; and has nothing to do with cluster size, as the target drive in my case had previously been blanked. Therefore it can be concluded that it is not a feature, or anything "intelligent," and that the solution is to use a previous version of the program. On a side note, I don't know why consumers are paying for Acronis. Free, bootable CD copies of Acronis can be obtained by Seagate and Western Digital, and between the two will perform a clone to almost any consumer drive. Neither will work on Samsung or Hitachi drives, unless a Seagate or WD is also directly connected to the controller.
Hello Paul,
Thank you for your comment. Logical and physical sector size parameters mentioned above are drive`s characteristic that do not change no matter what partitions you create or delete on the drive. You can compare logical sector sizes of your disks in Microsoft System Information file, see https://kb.acronis.com/content/56634, section "Click here to learn how to check disk's sector size". If they differ, that must be the reason of WD disk being grayed out.
We are considering providing more information about grayed out disks in the user interface.

Since other nucleases with a similar function to ZFN are considered in this opinion the term site-directed nuclease 3 (SDN-3) is used to describe the technique rather than ZFN-3 specifically. The EFSA GMO Panel considers that its guidance documents are applicable for the evaluation of food and feed products derived from plants developed using the SDN-3 technique and for performing an environmental risk assessment. However, on a case-by-case basis lesser amounts of event specific data may be needed for the risk assessment of plants developed using the SDN-3 technique. The EFSA GMO Panel compared the hazards associated with plants produced by the SDN-3 technique with those obtained by conventional plant breeding techniques and by currently used transgenesis. With respect to the genes introduced, the SDN-3 technique does not differ from transgenesis or from the other genetic modification techniques currently used, and can be used to introduce transgenes, intragenes or cisgenes. The main difference between the SDN-3 technique and transgenesis is that the insertion of DNA is targeted to a predefined region of the genome. Therefore, the SDN-3 technique can minimise hazards associated with the disruption of genes and/or regulatory elements in the recipient genome. Whilst the SDN-3 technique can induce off-target changes in the genome of the recipient plant these would be fewer than those occurring with most mutagenesis techniques. Furthermore, where such changes occur they would be of the same types as those produced by conventional breeding techniques. © European Food Safety Authority, 2012 Keywords: TALEN, meganuclease, ZFN, genome editing, gene targeting, transgenic, site-directed nucleases Print on demand Number of Pages: 31
