The potential impact of genetically modified (GM) crops on farmland biodiversity has been a topic of interest since the adoption of the Cartagena Protocol on Biodiversity and the first commercial release of GM crops in 1996. The adoption and use of genetically modified (GM) crops have not only...

Additionally, there are worries about the impact of GM crops on biodiversity and the environment. Despite the controversies surrounding GM food, it is important to consider the potential benefits it can bring. With the global population continuing to grow, finding ways to produce more food in a ...
In terms of environmental impact, critics argue that GM crops may have unintended consequences on ecosystems and biodiversity. For example, GM crops that are engineered to be resistant to pests may lead to the development of superweeds or superbugs that are resistant to pesticides. This could resu...
Agrobiodiversity management for food security Agrobiodiversity provides most of our food through our interaction with crops and domestic animals. Future global food security is firmly anchored in sound... JM Lenné,D Wood 被引量: 24发表: 2011年 ...
Adopting GM crops would mean corporate capture of Kenya’s food chain, says Anne Maina of the Biodiversity and Biosafety Association of Kenya.
The widespread adoption of GM crops could lead to reduced biodiversity, as genetically uniform crops replace traditional varieties. There are also concerns about the unintended spread of GM traits to wild plant populations, potentially creating ecological imbalances. 3. Corporate Control: Another issue ...
On the basis of our analysis of the available data on the link between herbicide use and declines in farmland insects and birds, we believe that increasing herbicide efficiency by widespread use of GMHT crops on UK farmland will further damage natural biodiversity. This is a preview of ...
The aim of this text is to set the framework for a better communication about science and regulation, and production of GM crops. GM stands for Genetic Modification, basically an unfortunate denomination, because actuallyallcrops are genetically modified , but it is a worldwide accepted term for...
For GM crops to be part of the solution, biosafety assessments should not be overly politically-driven or a burdensome impedance to delivering this technology broadly. Biosafety scientists and policy makers need to recognize the undeniable truth that inappropriate actions resulting in indecision also ...
