The study of plant genes and genomes and the development of techniques for the incorporation of novel or modified genes into plants eventually led to the commercialisation of genetically modified (GM) crops in the mid-1990's. This was seen as the start of a biotechnological revolution in plant breeding. However, plant biotechnology has become one of the hottest debates of the age and, in Europe at least, one of the greatest challenges that plant scientists have ever faced.Transgenic plantsTransgenic plantsHistoryPlant genetic engineeringAgricultural biotechnologyTransgenic plants.Transgenic plantsHistory.Plant genetic engineering.Agricultural biotechnology.631.5/233631.5233Halford Nigel G1865997MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910966926103321Genetically modified crops4473242UNINA
