Monitoring the occurrence of genetically modified oilseed rape growing along a Japanese roadside: 3-year observations.
Monitoring for escape of genetically modified (GM) oilseed rape (Brassica napus) during transport can be performed by means of roadside evaluations in areas where cultivation of this GM crop is not conducted, such as in Japan. We performed a survey of oilseed rape plants growing along a 20-km section of Japan's Route 51, one of the main land transportation routes in central Japan for imports of...
متن کاملUnexpected Diversity of Feral Genetically Modified Oilseed Rape (Brassica napus L.) Despite a Cultivation and Import Ban in Switzerland
Despite cultivation and seed import bans of genetically modified (GM) oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.), feral GM plants were found growing along railway lines and in port areas at four sites in Switzerland in 2011 and 2012. All GM plants were identified as glyphosate-resistant GM event GT73 (Roundup Ready, Monsanto). The most affected sites were the Rhine port of Basel and the St. Johann freigh...
متن کاملLandscape-scale distribution and persistence of genetically modified oilseed rape (Brassica napus) in Manitoba, Canada.
BACKGROUND, AIM AND SCOPE Genetically modified herbicide-tolerant (GMHT) oilseed rape (OSR; Brassica napus L.) was approved for commercial cultivation in Canada in 1995 and currently represents over 95% of the OSR grown in western Canada. After a decade of widespread cultivation, GMHT volunteers represent an increasing management problem in cultivated fields and are ubiquitous in adjacent ruder...
متن کاملStudying the Presence of Genetically Modified Variants in Organic Oilseed Rape by using Relational Data Mining
The production of genetically-modified (GM) crops has increased rapidly over the last 10 years. The possibility of GM crops mixing with conventional or organic crops is becoming a problem and estimating the adventitious presence of GM seeds into conventional crop harvests presents a challenge. In this study we used outputs from a previously developed computer model for gene flow between GM and ...
متن کاملDispersal and persistence of genetically modified oilseed rape around Japanese harbors.
BACKGROUND, AIM, AND SCOPE The possibility of gene transfer from genetically modified oilseed rape (OSR) to its cultivated or wild relatives is of concern since its commercial cultivation, because of its potential weediness and impact on the environment. Introgression of modified genes can affect conservation of agricultural crops, because there are many cultivars and wild Brassicaceae that may...
