Genetic engineering allows to develop plant varieties with resistance to pest and diseases, tolerance to common herbicides and abiotic stresses, and improved nutritional properties. A number of GE varieties of different crops are grown commercially and cover increasing crop areas worldwide. The lecture will provide the state of the art on the development and deployment of GE crops worldwide and discuss potential beneficial and adverse effects on the environment, in particular on biodiversity. |
