Cross Pollination from Genetically Engineered Corn : Wind Transport and Seed Source
Abstract
Pollen transport from genetically engineered corn was evaluated by testing corn offspring from nearby cornfields. Harvested corn, sown in greenhouse flats, was sprayed with glyphosate at second leaf stage. Corn resistant to glyphosate likely cross-pollinated with GE corn or came from contaminated seed. Overall cross-pollination was less than two percent.
