    The problem here focuses on the high degree of uncertainty about the impact of using genetically modified organisms, while the arrangements proposed are usually shaped by financial and political interventions . Consumer attitude is also of particular importance, as consumers are buying and paying their vote of approval at the same time ...
  2. Genetically modified organisms (GMOs) can be defined as organisms (i.e. plants, animals or microorganisms) in which the genetic material (DNA) has been altered in a way that does not occur naturally by mating and/or natural recombination. ... WHO and FAO have considered potential problems of the technological divide and the unbalanced ...

    Genetic modification is a biological technique that effects alterations in the genetic machinery of all kinds of living organisms. GMO is defined as follows by WHO (World Health Organization): "Organisms (i.e. plants, animals or microorganisms) in which the genetic material (DNA) has been altered in a way that does not occur naturally by mating and/or natural recombination" [2].

    Genetically modified organisms are categories of products that came out of advanced breeding technologies, which are also categorized as precision breeding techniques (Eriksson, 2019). Traditional breeding started by simple crossing of better performing organisms with each other and stabilizing the desirable traits by self‐crossing ...

    Genetic modification is defined as introducing transgene(s) with desired traits into the recipient organism's genome by recombinant deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) technology, and therefore it does not occur naturally [1,2,3].Genetically modified (GM) crops are thought to address food security, sustainability and climate change solutions by improving crop yields, conserving biodiversity ...

    In this chapter, the committee examines the evidence that substantiates or negates specific hypotheses and claims about the health risks and benefits associated with foods derived from genetically engineered (GE) crops. There are many reviews and official statements about the safety of foods from GE crops (for example, see Box 5-1), but to conduct a fresh examination of the evidence, the ...
