Genetically modified soybean plants and their ecosystem [PDF]
Transgenic plants are developed by introgressing new genes using methods of molecular genetics and genetic engineering. The presence of these genes in plant genome is identified on the basis of specific oligonucleotides primers, and the use of PCR ...

Risk assessment considerations for RNAi‐based genetically modified plants [PDF]
The risk assessment (RA) requirements for genetically modified plants (GMPs) are defined in Regulation (EU) No 503/2013 and the EFSA guidance on the RA of food and feed from GM plants (EFSA GMO Panel, 2011). When a GMP is developed to silence transcripts
