This study developed analytical methods which allowed reliable detection of mutations introduced in plants made by new genomic techniques. […] New scientific analyses underpin Mexico’s restrictions on GM corn and glyphosate due to health risksScientific analysis prepared by Mexico’s national agency for science and technology provides evidence for its restriction on the use of GM corn in tortillas and other minimally processed corn products, and phase out of the use of glyphosate. […] National agricultural policies and budgets in Southern Africa largely support conventional, industrial farming practices. There is a need for governments to prioritise food sovereignty and agroecology in policy and financial investments and develop national agroecology strategies. […] – It is not productive or meaningful to genetically modify wild organisms solely based on the assumption of potential benefits and with uncertainty about possible harm. […] CBD Parties have not explicitly continued the process for broad and regular horizon-scanning, monitoring and assessment of the most recent technological developments in synthetic biology, but assessment will continue, albeit in a different form. […] Parties to the Cartagena Protocol on Biosafety welcome voluntary guidance materials for assessing the risks of LMOs containing engineered gene drives, despite concerns that the materials are not precautionary enough and questions over potential conflicts of interest. […] TWN Briefing Note on synthetic biology for the UN Biodiversity Conference 2024 calls for equity and precaution […] This article dispels four fictions that proponents of the deregulation of new GMOs use to forward their argument, and stresses that doing so will not increase benefit or safety. […] Study describes ‘open air’ genome editing (and gene silencing applications) as emerging environmental contaminants with potential important impacts on non-target organisms. […] |
