Deliberate Releases of GMOs in Europe
February 16, 2007| |
Denmark, Spain, Portugal, Sweden, Czech Republic, Germany, and Hungary are some of the countries in Europe that are doing research involving genetically modified organisms. These projects involve research on weed control strategies in maize, and field trials for evaluation of herbicide resistance and insect tolerance transformation events in cotton and maize.
A listing of deliberate releases and placing on the European market of genetically modified organisms is available online. It details the project title, name of institute or company, publication, state and notification number. See the complete list at http://www.jrc.cec.eu.int.
