Biosafety - BioTrack

Volume 7 covers the biology of plant species (sorghum and tomato) and relates to Atlantic salmon in 2017-16. This is the first OECD biosafety report to address an animal species.

Volume 6 describes the biology, centres of origin, genetics, hybridisation, production and use, and ecology elements of several crops (sugarcane, cassava, sorghum, common bean, cucurbits) and trees (eucalyptus species) over the period 2013-15.

This newsletter provides an update on OECD activities related to biotechnology. Issued twice a year, it is mainly intended for delegates to OECD meetings who are familiar with OECD's work. However, we hope that it also serves a purpose to the wider biotech community.
