Cross-pollination in seed-blended refuge and selection for Vip3A resistance in a lepidopteran pest as detected by genomic monitoring

Pezzini, D., Taylor, K. L., Reisig, D. D., & Fritz, M. L. (2024, March 21). Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Vol. 121.

By: D. Pezzini n, K. Taylor  n, D. Reisig n  & M. Fritz n

author keywords: Helicoverpa zea; genomic monitoring; Bacillus thuringiensis; pesticide resistance; polygenic adaptation
MeSH headings : Animals; Larva / metabolism; Endotoxins / genetics; Endotoxins / metabolism; Bacillus thuringiensis / genetics; Pollination; Plants, Genetically Modified / genetics; Plants, Genetically Modified / metabolism; Bacterial Proteins / metabolism; Hemolysin Proteins / metabolism; Pest Control, Biological / methods; Insecticide Resistance / genetics; Genomics; Seeds / metabolism; Zea mays / genetics

Lessons for a SECURE Future: Evaluating Diversity in Crop Biotechnology Across Regulatory Regimes

George, D. R., Hornstein, E. D., Clower, C. A., Coomber, A. L., Dillard, D. S., Mugwanya, N., … Rozowski, C. (2022, May 2). Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, Vol. 5.

author keywords: crop biotechnology; SECURE rule; regulation; diversity trends; innovation; United States
topics (OpenAlex): CRISPR and Genetic Engineering; Genetically Modified Organisms Research; Plant tissue culture and regeneration; Transgenic Plants and Applications
TL;DR: It is suggested that diversity in crop biotechnology does not follow a single trajectory dictated by the shifts in regulation, and outcomes of SECURE might be more varied and restrictive despite the revamped exemption categories. (via Semantic Scholar)
