PNT stands for a "Plant with a Novel Trait". The
word "novel" may remind you of a work of fiction, but it
also means "new"?a PNT is a plant that has a new trait or
characteristic. A plant is considered to be a PNT if has
trait(s) that are novel to that species in Canada. That is
the new trait is not present in stable, cultivated
populations of the plant species in Canada, or
the trait in the plant species is present at a level
significantly outside the range of that trait in stable,
cultivated populations of that plant species in Canada.
Traditionally, plants have been given new traits through
selective breeding. Modern science gives plant breeders
newer methods of introducing novel traits into plants,
including mutagenesis and genetic engineering or rDNA.
