Assessing the ecological risks from the persistence and spread of feral populations of insect-resistant transgenic maize
One source of potential harm from the cultivation of transgenic crops is their dispersal, persistence and spread in non-agricultural land. Ecological damage may result from such spread if the abundance of valued species is reduced. The ability of a plant to spread in non-agricultural habitats is cal...
