متن کاملConcerns of resistant markers in marine ecosystem transformed plants
World population growth and requirement to global food security, application of genetic engineering and utilization of transgenic organisms have made more important. Using this technology, without regarding to its risks, can cause loses to environment. To generate transgenic organisms, selection systems are applied that cause to selective growth of transformed cells. Antibiotic resistance genes...
متن کاملPotential ecosystem indicators for th
1) Ecosystem indicators are a way of reducing ecosystem complexity into a form that is most informative and useful to management. As a means of turning data into information, indicators are ultimately a communication tool facilitating science-based governance, i.e. the sustainable use of WCPO tuna resources and the conservation of associated species. 2) One framework suggested for the developme...
