Are Mutations in Genetically Modified Plants Dangerous?

open access: yesJournal of Biomedicine and Biotechnology, 2007
Latham et al. [1] and Wilson et al. [2] reviewed the long known phenomenon that plant transformation may cause mutations. Mutations can occur at any position in the genome, due to the tissue culture phase or other factors. Furthermore, insertion mutations may be induced by Agrobacterium-mediated transformation or particle bombardment. The authors focus
