Risk assessment and risk management of LMOs with stacked genes or traits
[#859]
When there is a stacked gene LMO, risk management involving the detection of all the genes is one concern whether more than one gene should be detected. I opine that the all the genes involved should be detected. However, when there are numerous genes being stacked in a LMO, the may pose a practical consideration to detect a vast number of genes. Also, another concern is on the interaction between/among the genes involved. There is remote possibility when the gene acting along is harmless, but post significant danger when acting in unison.
