sexually compatible Explanation: Sexually compatible plant http://www.nap.edu/openbook.php?record_id=9795&page=13 "Given that transfer and manipulation of genes between sexually compatible plants could potentially result in adverse effects in some cases (for example, modulation of a pathway that increases the concentration of a toxicant), and given the public controversy regarding transgenic products, EPA should reconsider its categorical exemption of transgenic, pest-protectants derived from sexually compatible plants." -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 11 mins (2009-12-20 20:17:56 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- http://www.nature.com/embor/journal/v7/n8/full/7400769.html "Cisgenesis is the genetic modification of a recipient plant with a natural gene from a crossable—sexually compatible—plant. Such a gene includes its introns and is flanked by its native promoter and terminator in the normalsense orientation.Cisgenic plants can harbour one or more cisgenes, but they do not contain any transgenes." http://www.euro.who.int/document/fos/sala.pdf "May this be of danger to the environment? Can the foreign genes be transferred to sexually compatible plants ? Could transgenic seed dispersal endanger biodiversity? Are there strategies or tool to control and avoid these problems?" http://eur-lex.europa.eu/Notice.do?mode=dbl&lng1=hu,en&lang=... |
