Genetically Modified Crops [PDF]

, 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.

Trends in pesticide use on soybean, corn and cotton since the introduction of major genetically modified crops in the United States.

Pest Management Science, 2016
BACKGROUND Genetically modified (GM) varieties of soybean, corn and cotton have largely replaced conventional varieties in the United States. The most widely used applications of GM technology have been the development of crops that are resistant to a ...

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 ...

Soybeans and Power: Genetically Modified Crops, Environmental Politics, and Social Movements in Argentina

, 2016
In 1996, the Argentine government authorized the use of genetically modified (GM), herbicide-resistance soybean seeds. By the mid-2000s, GM soybeans were cultivated on more than half of the arable land in Argentina and represented one-fourth of the ...

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

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.
