Emminent scientist Dr. M.S.Swaminathan has underlined the need for regular monitoring to reduce the anxiety caused by genetically modified agricultural produce.
Chairing the plenary session on 'Food and Nutritional security' held as part of the 97th Indian Science Congress here, Dr. Swaminathan said that the proposed regulatory body should have biological scientists, food technologists, agricultural scientists, medical professionals and policy makers as members. It should be a totally autonomous body.
Genetic Modification Theory Enables Scientists Create the World's First Blue Roses
Thanks to genetic modification, scientists have created the word's first blue roses, which took nearly two decades of scientific research to develop.

GM Techniques Have Failed to Live Up to Their Promise in Food Crops
Traditional breeding has proven far more successful than GM techniques for consumer-targeted whole foods. Farmers might be attracted, but not consumers.
