商品描述

This open access book analyzes the regulation and governance of gene editing in the global agrifood system as applications of gene editing, regulations and the intellectual property landscape continue to evolve. The primary focus of the manuscript is the dynamic interactions between regulatory frameworks and agricultural applications of gene editing in plant breeding. The goal is to give readers a holistic perspective on why the status of gene editing in agricultural applications is in a state of flux in some jurisdictions (e.g., the European Union) while more settled in others (e.g., Canada). Readers are provided with a clearer picture of what the future might hold for the use of gene editing in agriculture as a means to address food insecurity as the climate crisis grows and amid global geopolitical and economic turbulence.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本開放存取的書籍分析了基因編輯在全球農食系統中的規範與治理,因為基因編輯的應用、相關法規及知識產權環境持續演變。手稿的主要焦點是監管框架與基因編輯在植物育種中的農業應用之間的動態互動。目標是讓讀者全面了解為何在某些法域(例如歐盟)中,基因編輯在農業應用的地位處於變動不居的狀態,而在其他地區(例如加拿大)則相對穩定。隨著氣候危機的加劇以及全球地緣政治和經濟動盪,讀者將獲得對基因編輯在農業中作為解決糧食不安全問題的未來可能情況的更清晰認識。
