Difference between sdn1 and sdn2 genome edited plants

Point	SDN-1	SDN-2
Main difference endogeneous or exogeneous	Involves the unguided repair of a targeted DNA break by the natural endogenous DNA repair mechanism of the host organism such as non-homologous end joining.	Involves a template-guided repair of a targeted DNA break using an externally supplied template sequence.
Activity	The spontaneous repair of this break can lead to a mutation causing gene silencing, gene knock-out, or a change in the activity of a gene.	The donor carries one or several small mutations flanked by two sequences matching both ends of the DNA break and is thus recognized as a repair template, allowing the introduction of the mutation(s) at the target site.
Edited plants obtained	The SDN-1 genome edited plants produced will be free from exogenous/foreign DNA. These mutations can be base substitutions/indels/deletions including large deletions or structural changes.	The resultant mutant carries a modified sequence, leading to an altered expression profile of the gene and/or altered activity of the encoded protein/RNA.
Ultimate place in gene pool	These resultant mutations are comparable to those occurring in nature, obtained through conventional mutagenic treatments or natural variation found in the primary/secondary gene pool.	Thus, the edited version could be regarded as an allelic form comparable to those available in the primary/secondary gene pool
