Post Market Environmental Monitoring of Genetically Modified Herbicide Tolerant Crops (Working group report from the 4th International Workshop on PMEM of Genetically Modified Plants, Quedlinburg, Germany 2010) [PDF]
According to European Union (EU) legislation, genetically modified (GM) crops released for commercial cultivation have to be monitored. Here we summarise the discussion of a working group that convened during the 4th International Workshop on Post Market

The genetic modification of plants is now an established tool for plant breeders in many parts of the world, with the area of land used for genetically modified (GM) crop cultivation rising to 170 million hectares by 2012. This article puts genetic modification of plants into the context of scientific plant breeding, and describes the techniques that ...
