Multiplex quantitative PCR for single-reaction genetically modified (GM) plant detection and identification of false-positive GM plants linked to Cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) infection [PDF]
BMC Biotechnology, 2019 Background Most genetically modified (GM) plants contain a promoter, P35S, from the plant virus, Cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV), and many have a terminator, TNOS, derived from the bacterium, Agrobacterium tumefaciens. Assays designed to detect GM plants

Environmental stress is the major cause of transcriptomic and proteomic changes in GM and non-GM plants. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2017 AbstractThe approval of genetically modified (GM) crops is preceded by years of intensive research to demonstrate safety to humans and environment. We recently showed that in vitro culture stress is the major factor influencing proteomic differences of GM vs. non-GM plants.

Gene Flow and Hybridization Potential Between GM/NGT Crops and Conventional Varieties or Wild Relatives: A Scoping Literature Review with Emphasis on Oilseed Rape (Brassica napus L.) and Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) [PDF]
BioTechGenetically modified (GM) plants have been commercially grown for 30 years, and their acceptance depends on a thorough risk assessment. Environmental Risk Assessment (ERA) evaluates potential impacts of releasing GM plants into the environment, whether ...
