THE IMPORTANCE OF TRANSGENICS FOR AGRICULTURE

THE IMPORTANCE OF TRANSGENICS FOR AGRICULTURE

The present article makes reference to the possible wide use of transgenic plants in the agriculture to overcome challenges of production and productivity increases, pest and disease control, quality improvement, and production of pharmaceutical products more accessible for consumers, with cheap price and easy to use. It includes a discussion about the obtainment methods and utilization of transgenic plants in several situations and different ecological niches. It also calls attention for the conditions where the exotic genes can be used in plant breeding programs, and is emphatic to the risk assessments in relation to health food and environmental security, before the release for consumption.

Este artigo refere-se às amplas possibilidades do uso de plantas transgênicas na agricultura, como alternativa para vencer desafios ligados ao aumento da produção e da produtividade, controle de pragas e doenças, melhoria da qualidade dos produtos e busca de medicamentos mais acessíveis, baratos e de fácil aplicação. Apresenta uma discussão sobre os métodos de obtenção e aplicabilidade da utilização de plantas transgênicas em diversas situações e em diferentes nichos ecológicos. Chama a atenção para as condições em que os genes exógenos devem ser usados em programas de melhoramento genético de plantas, além de enfatizar a necessidade da avaliação do risco por meio da análise das plantas transgênicas quanto à saúde alimentar e a segurança ambiental, antes da sua liberação para consumo.THE IMPORTANCE OF TRANSGENICS FOR AGRICULTURE ABSTRACT The present article makes reference to the possible wide use of transgenic plants in the agriculture to overcome challenges of production and productivity increases, pest and disease control, quality improvement, and production of pharmaceutical products more accessible for consumers, with cheap price and easy to use.
