The National Institute of Environmental Research of South Korea has released a report stating that it found GM DNA in 42 GM crop samples in 22 municipalities in the country. […] Recent research shows that the pyramid strategy (developed to deal with insect resistance to Bt crops) of genetically engineering crops to produce two or more toxins that kill the same pest, may not work. […] A recent study sheds new light on the problem of secondary pest emergence by establishing a link between the rise in aphids in Bt cotton and a weakened plant defence system. […] Researchers at the University of Minnesota and Iowa State University have recently linked the spread of herbicide resistant GM corn and soybeans to declines in the numbers of monarch butterflies. […] A new report makes recommendations to the EU after finding many negative consequences of 20 year of commercial GMO cultivation in the US. […] The first published and peer-reviewed study analyzing the impact of GM herbicide and insect tolerant crops on pesticide use has shown that major GM crops have increased overall pesticide use significantly. […] This report gives an overview on the scope of genetic modification research and the development status of transgenic varieties in India. It also assesses India’s experience with Bt cotton. […] This report presents peer-reviewed scientific and other authoritative evidence of the hazards to health and the environment posed by GMOs. […] Pests are adapting to GM crops in unexpected ways, researchers have discovered. […] |
