Information on the content of the resource

Summary, abstract or table of contents

This is the third book in a series on Environmental Risk Assessment of Genetically Modified Organism and provides detailed information relevant for biosafety policy, regulatory frameworks, capacity building training and biosafety education. The book synthesizes interdisciplinary scientific information and provides detailed methodologies for assessing, managing and monitoring of environmental risks of transgenic fish, as well as stakeholder deliberation. The book is relevant to fish LMOs developed for use aquaculture in developing and developed countries and to the diversity of aquatic ecosystems that fish LMOs might enter.
