A recent meeting about the disconnect between scientific and public beliefs points to ways researchers can improve how they communicate with skeptics.

The agritech industry is editing plant genomes to feed a growing population, expand the produce aisle, and make tastier, more convenient food products.

Risks that pertain to all manner of new crops are often misattributed to genetic engineering. This distorts the public’s view of the technology.

Restrictions will remain on transgenic plants, which contain artificially inserted genes from other species.

An analysis of 40 years of data also finds declines in pest populations after the introduction of the GM crop.

RT and Sputnik publish stories about GMOs more often than US outlets, and typically portray them in a negative light.

Crops produced using mutagenic technologies such as CRISPR should generally be exempt from regulatory laws governing GMOs, according to the published opinion.

Plantings of non-GM refuges counter the development of resistance.

Researchers enhance the photosynthetic yield of tobacco plants with genetic engineering.
