支持楼主，占个位置听课 席地而坐，静听才子宣讲。 感谢以上各位大佬的捧场，请自觉提供相关建议哈，我的进步，需要你们的鞭策。 添加些佐料。
Environmental Impact of Genetically Modified Crops
Publisher: CABI | Pages: 432 | 2009-04-25 | ISBN 1845934091 | PDF | 2 MB
The genetic modification of crops continues to be the subject of intense debate, and opinions are often strongly polarised. Environmental Impact of Genetically Modified Crops addresses the major concerns of scientists, policy makers, environmental lobby groups and the general public regarding this controversial issue, from an editorially neutral standpoint.
Included is a chapter by Bruce Tabashnik on the recent discovery of the first documented case of field-evolved resistance to a crop genetically modified to carry the gene for the Bacillus thuringiensis toxin. While the main focus is on environmental impact, food safety issues for both humans and animals are also considered. The book concludes with a discussion on the future of agricultural biotechnology in the context of sustainability, natural resource management and future global population and food supply.

PS：这些佐料究竟说了些什么，本人一概不知。本人尚未阅读这些佐料。与此有关的中文书独秀上应该一抓一大把。 Genetically Modified Planet: Environmental Impacts of Genetically Engineered Plants By C. Neal Stewart
Publisher: Oxford University Press, USA | ISBN: 0195157451 | edition 2004 | PDF | 256 pages | 2,4 mb
Genetically modified plants are currently causing controversy worldwide; a great deal has been written about their supposed environmental effects. However, the newspaper headlines and public debates often provide a level of reasoning akin to "this is your brain on genetically modified corn," which is to say, they exclude or exaggerate the actual scientific research on the impacts of these plants. Genetically Modified Planet goes beyond the rhetoric to investigate for concerned consumers the actual state of scientific research on genetically modified plants. Stewart argues that while there are indeed real and potential risks of growing engineered crops, there are also real and overwhelmingly positive environmental benefits.

English | 2010 | 352 Pages | ISBN: 1595584269 | PDF | 2 MB
The result of a remarkable three-year-long investigation that took award-winning journalist and documentary filmmaker Marie-Monique Robin across four continents (North and South America, Europe, and Asia), The World According to Monsanto tells the little-known yet shocking story of this agribusiness giant--the world's leading producer of GMOs (genetically modified organisms)--and how its new "green" face is no less malign than its PCB- and Agent Orange-soaked past.
Robin reports that, following its long history of manufacturing hazardous chemicals and lethal herbicides, Monsanto is now marketing itself as a "life sciences" company, seemingly convinced about the virtues of sustainable development. However, Monsanto now controls the majority of the yield of the world's genetically modified corn and soy--ingredients found in more than 95 percent of American households--and its alarming legal and political tactics to maintain this monopoly are the subject of worldwide concern.
Released to great acclaim and controversy in France, throughout Europe, and in Latin America alongside the documentary film of the same name, The World According to Monsanto is sure to change the way we think about food safety and the corporate control of our food supply.

2011 | 369 Pages | ISBN: 0857247573 | PDF | 4 MB
Genetically modified (GM) (or transgenic) crops are produced using plant biotechnology to select desirable characteristics in plants and transfer genes from one organism to another. As a result, crops can survive under harsher conditions, costs are lowered, chemical application is reduced, and yields are improved. Scientists are introducing genes into plants that will give them resistance to herbicides, insects, disease, drought and salt in the soil. The application of modern biotechnology to crop and food production is one of the most significant technological advances to impact modern agriculture. The future of GM technology holds further promises of continued benefits. But the potential of GM product innovations has been overshadowed by significant controversy over this technology. The regulatory activism that has accompanied the diffusion of GM technology has given rise to a complex situation that is replete with obstacles for current and future GM innovations. This is particularly true for the European Union (EU), which has implemented restrictive policies that undoubtedly constrain the current status and the future potential of biotechnology. The discourse on biotechnology applied to food and agriculture is at a crossroads due to rising food prices and concerns about adequate food supplies and limited land and water. Over the last decade a large body of applied economics work has addressed the key questions surrounding the application of this technology to food production. It is now time to take stock of the results of these efforts, and consolidate the methodological, analytical and empirical findings. The challenge is to strengthen the consensus of what economics has to offer in the analysis of the complex issues surrounding the ongoing development of GM products for the agricultural and food sector. The motivation for this volume is to provide a new perspective on the most pressing policy questions regarding GM crops and to help foster an intellectual climate conducive to achieving meaningful progress and lasting solutions. It brings together fresh insights from top agricultural economists in the areas of consumer attitudes, environmental impacts, policy and regulation, trade, investment, food security, and development.
http://1000eb.com/ck2u 赵师傅提供的书很不错，谢谢。 原本计划寒假期间好好研读一下转基因方面的材料，走亲访友回来后一直写几个课题项目，给耽搁了。今天午休的时候粗略看了一下今天出来的《science》题录，刊出了一篇题为：Switzerland Creates Secure Test Site for GM Crops 的文章，讲得非常深刻，有时间的朋友可以精读此文。

13个小时之前，著名科学家刘实发表了评论：I think China should do the same to place its GM testings inside secured sites. 武才子不遗余力孜孜不倦时刻挂念 引用第14楼josephe于2013-03-02 10:51发表的 :
武才子不遗余力孜孜不倦时刻挂念 才子想多了。啥叫先下手为强？你今天写了，明天就是他人拾你才子的牙慧了。 我没看文章，但标题上的Secure Test Site一词背后所反应出的问题应该是显而易见的。个人意见，目前应该还不可能建立真真意义上的安全点，最多只能说建立一个能把可能的问题降到目前的极限水平的试验点。contamination也是这类试验最头疼的问题之一。 有好想法，没有条件支持，更没有好的笔杆子，也是整不出来的，这方面跟国外大家比起来，差距不是一般的大。 不要求你发表到science上，只要你在这侃侃大山即可。 你侃一下大山，偶们就受惠无穷啦。
