This publication gives a basic introduction to how it works and how it's being used in plant breeding. https://escholarship.org/uc/item/6vb6z2f6 Wed, 3 Jan 2018 00:00:00 +0000 Suslow, Trevor V Thomas, Bruce R Bradford, Kent J https://escholarship.org/uc/item/6fh754wt “Ensuring reasonable segregation allows the coexistence of different crops, whether genetically engineered, organic, or conventional. Monitoring requires accurate detection methods, especially in jurisdictions where thresholds are either not set at all (“zero tolerance”) or where only minute quantities of AP are allowed. These issues are particularly crucial on the farm, where seed commingling and AP of various contaminants is inevitable and occurs as a matter of course.” https://escholarship.org/uc/item/6fh754wt Wed, 3 Jan 2018 00:00:00 +0000 McHughen, Alan https://escholarship.org/uc/item/5nn168mv Some food shoppers are concerned about the safety of biotech crops and of food animals raised on biotech feeds.

This publication answers some basic questions on the GE process and food safety. https://escholarship.org/uc/item/39h5z7tg Wed, 3 Jan 2018 00:00:00 +0000 Winter, Carl K Gallegos, Lisa K https://escholarship.org/uc/item/27z3n364 For some farmers and consumers, planting and consuming these crops is controversial based on questions concerning food and environmental safety. Consumers, farmers, producers, and scientists need to have accurate information about genetic engineering, its products, and their impact. A number of scientific issues related to GE crops and foods are discussed https://escholarship.org/uc/item/27z3n364 Wed, 3 Jan 2018 00:00:00 +0000 Lemaux, Peggy G https://escholarship.org/uc/item/27g048zz Agricultural Biotechnology in California series. https://escholarship.org/uc/item/27g048zz Wed, 3 Jan 2018 00:00:00 +0000 McHughen, Alan https://escholarship.org/uc/item/1ff1b4mx Describes practices that can be used to reduce the potential for contamination by outcrossing in cottonseed. https://escholarship.org/uc/item/1ff1b4mx Wed, 3 Jan 2018 00:00:00 +0000 Hutmacher, Robert B Vargas, Ron N Wright, Steven D https://escholarship.org/uc/item/0nd4g77h A basic discussion of patent rights as they apply to genetically engineered plants, presented in the context of conventional plant breeding. https://escholarship.org/uc/item/0nd4g77h Wed, 3 Jan 2018 00:00:00 +0000 Wright, Brian D
