Genetically modified crops and allergenicity

Nature Immunology, 2005
Among the concerns surrounding genetically modified crops has been the possibility of expressing within a plant new proteins that may be allergenic. Using available technology, practical approaches have been adopted to help prevent the creation of foods that are allergenic.

FocusEnvironmental monitoring of genetically modified crops

Journal of Environmental Monitoring, 1999
Genetically modified (GM) crops are now approved for commercial use in several world areas. In terms of commercial acreage, the majority of these products possess either herbicide tolerance or insect protection traits. Prior to commercialization, each product underwent a country specific review of environmental safety data by independent regulatory ...

Promise and issues of genetically modified crops

Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2013
The growing area of genetically modified (GM) crops has substantially expanded since they were first commercialized in 1996. Correspondingly, the adoption of GM crops has brought huge economic and environmental benefits. All these achievements have been primarily supported by two simple traits of herbicide tolerance and insect resistance in the past 17

Regulation and exploitation of genetically modified crops

Nature Biotechnology, 2001
Functional foods, nutraceuticals, and plant-derived medicines may improve public relations for transgenic crop technology, but could leave manufacturers with tricky business decisions to make.

Genetically modified crops and the european union

2011
Outside the European Union (EU), the area planted with genetically modified crops (GM crops) increases about 10% annually (see Figure 2.1 in preceding chapter). Within the EU there are still seemingly unbridgeable differences in opinion and acceptance among the Member States. The EU regulation to approve GM crops is very restrictive.

Genetically Modified Crops and the Environment

Agronomy Journal, 2000
Genetic modification (GM) of crops provides new crop management options (production traits) and crops with industrial, pharmaceutical, and neutraceutical applications are likely to follow. The environmental benefits and risks of growing GM crops have drawn considerable, often polarized debate.

Genetically Modified Crops in Africa

2014
Hunger and malnutrition are flammable pertinent issues that hinder progress of a nation and become an increasing risk. Biotechnology and food security have very good relationship both in the present and the future, concurrently embracing technology that offer new opportunities with increase crop and animal production.

Genetically Modified Crops

2015
Genetic engineering is the alteration of the genome of an organism by introduction of one or a few specific foreign gene mainly with the help of Agrobacterium or particle gun. The modified organism is described as ‘transgenic organism’. If gene is inserted in plants, they are called as transgenic plants.
