This is an editorial in the New York Times on the findings that genes from GE grass can travel much further than anyone had thought possible. (please also see ‘Genes from Engineered Grass Spread for Miles, Study Finds’) […] This artcle discusses the safety issues relating to GE insects. […] A new study shows that genes from genetically engineered grass can spread much farther than previously known, a finding that raises questions about the straying of other plants altered through biotechnology. […] The development of GE trees is biased against a social arrangement that rely on biological diversity. Tackling the challenge GM trees pose means tackling the industrial and bureaucratic tradition which seeks the radical simplification of landscapes. […] This report summarizes the different research emphases on transgenic woody plants, presents problems and limits of the new developments and discusses possible risks. […] GM cotton is about to be introduced into West Africa. However, the report finds that Bt cotton will not significantly reduce pesticide use nor provide any economic advantages to farmers in the region. […] A season long study [2003-2004] of the performance of Bt Cotton in Andhra Pradesh, India. […] A survey directed by the State Department of Agriculture of Andhra Pradesh, India has found that in some areas where Bt cotton was grown, yields were lower than that of non-Bt cotton and cultivation costs were also higher, for the 2002 planting season. […] This study analyse the situation in Andhra Pradesh, a major cotton producer in India, after the first year of cultivation of GM cotton. […] This is a story about the experiences of the farmers of Makhathini in South Africa with Bt cotton. It is also a story about dependency and indebtedness. […] |
