Genetically modified (GM) cotton altered for insect and herbicide resistance released into
commercial production in 1996 to 1997 now accounts for the lion's share of cotton acreage …

Following a request by the United Soybean Board (USB), the Board of Directors of the
Council for Agricultural Science and Technology (CAST) authorized preparation of a report …

One usually thinks of plant biology as a non-controversial topic, but the concerns raised over
the biosafety of genetically modified (GM) plants have reached disproportionate levels …

The inevitable escape of transgenic pollen from cultivated fields will lead to the emergence
of transgenic crop-wild plant hybrids in natural patches of wild plants. The fate of these …

The risk of transgene transfer from genetically modified oilseed rape to the weedy relatives
Brassica rapa and B. juncea has been studied. In field experiments with mixed populations …

In recent years there has been a dramatic increase in the application of plant biotechnology
for the production of a variety of commercially valuable simple and complex biological …

We present an annotated bibliography of peer reviewed scientific research highlighting the
human health, animal welfare, and environmental risks associated with genetic modification …

Background The perturbation of the steady state of reactive oxygen species (ROS) due to
biotic and abiotic stresses in a plant could lead to protein denaturation through the …

Stable expression of a transgene may lead to increased fitness for wild plants after acquiring
the transgene via crop–weed hybridization. Here, we investigate the stability of Bt toxin …

Use of the techniques of molecular biology in plant science has led to increased
understanding of natural mechanisms involved in gene transfer, gene acquisition and …
