Design and analysis of population demographic experiments for use in environmental risk assessments for genetically modified crops
DownloadFall 2016
Genetically modified crops with putative fitness-enhancing traits are being field-tested throughout Canada and the world, but robust methods with which to compare their fitness with conventional cultivars are lacking. Additionally, field analyses of GM crops in non-agricultural areas are...
