DVD Burner Signature?

Hi Do DVD burners leave any kind of unique signature/identifier on a disc, that could be traced back to individual burners?

I'm not sure about DVD+R but I know that DVD-R burners write information
about the drive on the disc. This information usually contains details about
the drive manufacturer and drive model number. I have seen reports that some drives also record the drives unique serial number on DVD-R discs.
