Chloroplast genetic engineering offers several unique advantages, including high-level
transgene expression, multi-gene engineering in a single transformation event and …

With advances in recombinant DNA methods and transformation procedures, it is possible to
transfer genes into crop plants from unrelated plants, microbes and animals. Many of the …

Mutualistic biotic interactions as among flowering plants and their animal pollinators are a
key component of biodiversity. Pollination, especially by insects, is a key element in …

Glyphosate is a potent herbicide. It works by competitive inhibition of the enzyme 5-enol-
pyruvyl shikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS), which catalyzes an essential step in the …

Chloroplast genetic engineering overcomes concerns of gene containment, low levels of
transgene expression, gene silencing, positional and pleiotropic effects or presence of …

The role of crop‐to‐weed gene flow is often controversial and overlooked. As a
consequence, the likelihood of spontaneous crop‐to‐weed hybridization in most crop/weed …

Chloroplast genetic engineering offers several advantages over nuclear transformation
including high levels of gene expression and gene containment. However, a consequence …

A study was conducted in 2006 and 2007 designed to examine the foraging range of honey
bees, Apis mellifera (Hymenoptera: Apidae), in a 15.2 km2 area dominated by a 128.9 ha …

For more than 20 years cotton has been the most widely sown genetically modified (GM)
crop in Mexico. Its cultivation has fulfilled all requirements and has gone through the …

In order to help establish a basis for the assessment of gene flow associated with the large-
scale release of transgenic oilseed rape, we previously designed a method which makes it …
