Non-target Effects of Genetically Modified Trees

Non-target Effects of Genetically Modified Trees

To date, few studies have focused on the effects of genetically modified trees (GM trees) on the environment. One concern with GM trees is that they may have unanticipated effects on non-target organisms, i.e. effects on organisms that are not direct targets of the genetically modified trait. The ma...
