Abstract

Genetically modified plants are critically important for the future bioeconomy in Poland as well as in United Europe. We observe discussions and polemics all around Europe concerning potential risk related to the effects of GM plants, particularly connected with environment, receiving organisms and long term effects. Any reproducible scientific data describing negative effects are available. However, we need solid and based on science legislation system.
