Some poxviruses are very attractive as transgenic vaccine vectors for humans, domestic animals and wildlife. Poxviridae family members circulate in different ecosystems and parts of the world, providing a pool of possible recombination partners for released or escaped genetically modified poxviruses. […]

Nontarget risk assessment for transgenic crops should be case-specific, depending on the plant, the transgene, and the intended release environment. […] Showing that a genetically modified food is chemically similar to its natural counterpart is not adequate evidence that it is safe for human consumption. […] r Item 1 LSBC closing signals pharming trouble LSBC closing signals pharming trouble Dr Peter Saunders, Prof of Mathematics at King’s College, London provides a clear and common sense approach to understanding the precautionary principle.

[…] When genetically modified soya came on the scene it seemed like a heaven-sent solution to Argentina’s agricultural problems. Now soya is being blamed for an environmental crisis that is threatening the country’s fragile economic recovery. Sue Branford d […] The case for fixing a date for destruction of smallpox virus stocks is stronger than ever. For the first time since 2011, the World Health Assembly (WHA) will undertake a substantive consideration of destruction of smallpox virus stocks when it meets […] BAN TERMINATOR CAMPAIGN (http://www.banterminator.org) Terminator technology refers to plants that have been genetically modified to render sterile seeds at harvest (also called Genetic Use Restriction Technology or GURTs).
