May 31, 2019 · Knowledge of GM (genetically modified) technology and attitudinal variables related to genetically modified organisms (GMOs) and late blight-resistant (LBR) GM potato (n = 384). Cont.
Mar 13, 2019 · Notably, transgenic potato expressing Rpi-vnt1.1 developed by J.R. Simplot is to date the only case of a genetically engineered crop with enhanced resistance to a nonviral pathogen that has been approved for commercial use (Table 1). Successful pathogens often evade detection by host R genes (Jones and Dangl, 2006).
Jun 15, 2019 · This successful application will accelerate the domestication of orphan crops by introducing known agronomic traits from distantly related model crops 125. Kiwifruit is a recently domesticated ...
Oct 13, 2003 · Despite such discord, genetically modified (GM) crops have the fastest adoption rate of any new technology in global agriculture simply because farmers benefit directly from higher yields and lowered production costs. (See Table 1 .) To date, the two most prevalent GM crops traits are Btderived insect resistance and herbicide resistance.
In 1971, the first debate over the risks to humans of exposure to GMOs began when a common intestinal microorganism, E. coli, was infected with DNA from a tumor-inducing virus (Devos et al ., 2007 ...
Nov 14, 2009 · Abiotic stresses such as drought and extremes of temperature commonly reduce both yield and quality of potato. This study investigated the potential to use gene transfer technology to enhance the tolerance of potato to commonly encountered abiotic stresses. Agrobacterium mediated transformation was used to create lines of potato (cv. Desiree) that over-expressed either a wheat mitochondrial Mn ...
Apr 15, 2011 · In spite of benefits to growers, processors, consumers and the environment, genetically modified (GM) potatoes were a market failure in North America. Contributing to the failure was the lack of an identity preservation (IP) system that could have prevented unapproved GM potato products from entering export markets. We interviewed 26 industry experts to identify recommended practices for GM ...
