Genetic Engineering and Testing Methodologies
Genetic Engineering PRODUCER FACT SHEET 3 Genetic Engineering and Testing MethodologiesALAN McHUGHEN, Cooperative Extension Plant Biotechnologist, Department of Botany and Plant Sciences, University of California, RiversideGenetic Engineering (GE) in crops is becoming more and more widespread; in 2005 an estimated 222 million acres (90 million ha) of GE crops were grown by mil-lion farmers in 21 countries worldwide (James 2006). In spite of the rapid adoption of these transgenic crops by farmers, some people remain skeptical and even fear-ful of these plants, demanding strict controls on their cultivation, distribution, and consumption. Therefore, many GE crops and the foods and feeds derived from them should be monitored to ensure that adventitious (unintended) presence (AP) is kept below agreed limits or tolerances.
Genetic engineering can also result in the inhibition or removal of endogenous proteins or metabolites, and the absence of these proteins or metabolites also can pro- …
