R&D regulation and field trialling of transgenic crops
1995
Dale, P.J.
Worldwide, there have been many hundreds of field trials with transgenic crops. Over 38 different crop species have been tested in field experiments in 31 countries since the first trials with tobacco in 1986. Several transgenic plant varieties have been approved for commercial use. Over the past ten years, regulations governing the release of transgenic plants for experimental and commercial purposes have been developed in different countries. There is an active international dialogue with the aim of achieving harmonized, equitable and responsible regulations so that transgenic plants and their products can be transported between countries for research and commerce.
