Abstract: Within the European Union monitoring is compulsory after the placing on
the market of genetically modified organisms (GMOs). It aims firstly at confirming
assertions made in the environmental risk assessment regarding the occurrence and
impact of potentially adverse effects of the GMO or its use and secondly at identifying
effects which are not anticipated in the environmental risk assessment. GMO
monitoring has to be specific on GMO characteristics, modified traits and on the
intended use of the GMO. In order to design GMO monitoring different steps have to be
carried out and three identified monitoring areas have to be considered. In this article
specific attention is given to the identification of potential adverse effects of GMOs on
the environment, the selection of appropriate methods and the suitability of existing
programs for GMO monitoring.
