The production and consumption of genetically modified organisms have increased without a proper assessment of how they can affect our communities. This protocol could help decision-makers regulate and evaluate the risks associated with GMOs. Share it within your network!➡️ https://ow.ly/NNLq50P1eihIFOAM Organics Europe

Exciting news from AgResearch, one of seven Crown Research Institutes in New Zealand 🌿🔬. They're taking their genetically modified and gene-edited grasses research to new heights.Up until now, AgResearch has had a major focus on high metabolisable energy (HME) ryegrass for pasture. This genetically modified (GM) grass is super cool because it has been specially designed to have more lipids in its leaves. How? By increasing the expression of two genes involved in lipid production and photosynthesis. Scientists hope that the HME ryegrass will deliver nutritional benefits for cattle while also reducing methane emissions and nitrogen excretion too.Read more: https://bit.ly/44K3ACE#GroundCoverOnline #CropGenetics #Ryegrass

In the 1960s, the once dominant Gros Michel banana vanished from shelves across the world. Its devastating disappearance was caused by a soil-borne fungal species. Without a known pesticide or method of control, the soil-borne fungus that causes Fusarium wilt, also known as Panama disease, can spread rapidly and remain in the soil for over 50 years. But now an Australian genetically modified (GM) Cavendish banana resistant to the disease, could save the variety that today represents 97% of Australia’s banana production.
