Risk assessment of gene flow from genetically engineered virus resistant cassava to wild relatives in Africa - an expert panel report

Risk assessment of gene flow from genetically engineered virus resistant cassava to wild relatives in Africa - an expert panel report | Genetic Engineering Publications - GEG Tech top picks | Scoop.it
BigField GEG Tech's insight:

The probability and consequences of gene flow to wild relatives is typically considered in the environmental risk assessment of genetically engineered crops. This is a report from a discussion by a group of experts who used a problem formulation approach to consider existing information for risk assessment of gene flow from cassava (Manihot esculenta) genetically engineered for virus resistance to the ‘wild’ (naturalized) relative M. glaziovii in East Africa.
