Abstract: Transgenic glyphosate tolerant soybeans are constituents of an industrial production system with specific agricultural practices and supplementary agrochemicals as interwoven additional elements. Thus the material produced should not be seen as an isolated product of a specific modified genotype but rather as a product of a tailored agriculture system. This globally dominant crop has …
Abstract: This article summarises data about glyphosate-tolerant (“Roundup ready”) genetically modified soybean influence on animals’ organism. The influence of herbicide glyphosate on the organism of plants and animals, which is widely used herbicide in agriculture in the most countries of the world, is considered. Each year, the use of “Roundup” herbicide increases, as weeds become …
Abstract: Herbicide tolerant plants such as Roundup-Ready soybean contain residues of glyphosate herbicide. These residues are considered safe and previous animal-feeding-studies have failed to find negative effects related to such chemical residues. The present study tests 8 experimental soy- meal diets as feed in groups (each containing 20 individuals) of test-animals (D. magna). The diets …
Abstract: 利用进口转基因和国产非转基因豆粕制作饲料,喂养吉富罗非鱼,分别于饲喂4周、7周以后称量体重,取其血液,检测其血液常规生理生化指标,评价转基因豆粕对罗非鱼生长和生理的影响。结果显示投喂转基因饲料组与非转基因饲料组相比,罗非鱼的增重率没有显著差异(P0.05)。投喂转基因饲料4周以后,罗非鱼的血液生理指标没有显著差异,7周以后,转基因组与非转基因饲料组相比,各项血清指标没有显著差异。全血指标中白细胞数目(P=0.001)、大血小板比率(P=0.002)、平均血小板体积(P=0.000)和血小板体积分布宽度(P=0.001)4项指标显著高于非转基因饲料组,而且差异达到极显著水平(P0.01)。由以上结果可见,进口转基因大豆与国产非转基因大豆相比,对罗非鱼的一些生理过程造成了一定的影响,但是并未对其生长造成可见的影响。 Keywords: blood physiological, biochemical indexes, genetically modified soybean, growth, tilapia, Roundup Ready soy, white blood cell, platelet, fish, glyphosate tolerant soy, GMO soy Citation: Ran, M.T., Lei, W. and Keyong, J., 2009.

Abstract: We used nested‐polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to detect Roundup Ready soybean in aquatic feeds and feeding tilapias. A template concentration of 10−10 g μL−1 DNA solution could be detected with a dilute degree of 0.01%. Most (90.6%) of the aquatic feeds containing soybean byproduct included exogenous DNA segments. We also compared genetically modified (GM) …
Abstract: The presence of plant DNA fragments in blood, kidney, hearth, liver, spleen and muscle tissue from suckling kids was investigated by using PCR approach. Fragments of high copy number chloroplast and low copy soybean lectin genes were found in several samples of kids whose mother were fed diet containing conventional (control) or transgenic soybean …

Abstract: Research purpose. Examine under conditions in vitro effect of aqueous extract of GM roundup resistant soybean compared with soy classical breeding activity propionic acid bacteria are used in starters in the manufacture of hard cheeses with a long shelf life, and the use of transgenic soybeans in feeding chicks and laying hens with the …
Abstract: The acreage for genetically modified crops (GMOs)—particularly soybean—has steadily increased since 1996, when the first crop of Roundup Ready soybean (intended for food production) was grown. The Roundup Ready soybean varieties derive from a soybean line into which a glyphosate-resistant enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate-synthase (EPSPS) gene was introduced. The inserted and the flanking regions in Roundup Ready soybean …
Abstract: Background. Genetically modified glyphosate-tolerant cultivar varieties have been a commercial success widely known as Roundup Ready plants. As new glyphosate-tolerant varieties are introduced to satisfy agriculture demand, it is relevant to review the scientific evidence that documents the quality and safety of such biotechnology. Assessments of genetically modified glyphosate-tolerant plants are partly based on …
Abstract: The herbicide Roundup applied to Roundup Ready soybean consistently affects root-associated Fusarium. Populations increased 2-5 times 5 d after Roundup application and continued increasing for >2 wk. Soybean receiving no herbicide or conventional tank-mix had no noticeable increase in fungal populations. Specific effects of increased Fusarium are unknown; however, such imbalances in soil communities …
Abstract: The persistence of plant-derived recombinant DNA in sheep and pigs fed genetically modified (Roundup Ready) canola was assessed by PCR and Southern hybridization analysis of DNA extracted from digesta, gastrointestinal (GI) tract tissues, and visceral organs. Sheep (n = 11) and pigs (n = 36) were fed to slaughter on diets containing 6.5 or 15% …
Abstract: The presence of the recombinant cp4 epsps gene from Roundup Ready (RR) corn and RR soybean was quantified using real-time PCR in soil samples from a field experiment growing RR and conventional corn and soybean in rotation. RR corn and RR soybean cp4 epsps persisted in soil for up to 1 year after seeding. …
Abstract: In this article we describe the isolation and characterisation of the junction between insert DNA and plant DNA in the transgenic Roundup Ready soybean line event 40-3-2. Our results establish that during integration of the insert DNA several rearrangements occurred at the 3′ NOS junction and that the genomic plant DNA at the pre-integration …
Abstract: In agriculture, the principle of coexistence refers to a condition where different primary production systems can exist in the vicinity of each other, and can be managed in such a way that they affect each other as little as possible. Coexistence policies aim to ensure that farmers are able to freely grow the crops …
Abstract: Possible transfer of DNA fragments from genetically modified Roundup Ready soybean, containing transgene for tolerance against herbicides with glyphosate, from fodder into blood of broilers ROSS 308 was studied. Three feeding experiments were performed. Totally, 118 blood samples were analyzed. Detection of DNA fragments was divided into two parts. First, we were looking for …
Abstract: Introduction. Genetically modified soy is characterized by a high protein content (38-42%), which contains all the essential aminoacids, many polyunsaturated fatty acids, vitamins, macro and micronutrients, so it comprise of many foods: bread, biscuits, margarine, pizza, sausage, candy, milk, yogurt, baby food and others, but the final opinion on their safety there. This problem …
