| Gene flow from sugar beets to sea beets occurs in the seed propagation areas in southern Europe. Some seed propagation also takes place in Denmark, but here the crop–wild gene flow has not been investigated. Hence, we studied gene flow to sea beet populations from sugar beet lines used in Danish seed propagation areas. A set of 12 Danish, two Swedish, one French, one Italian, one Dutch, and one Irish populations of sea beets, and four lines of sugar beet were analysed. To evaluate the genetic variation and gene flow, eight microsatellite loci were screened. This analysis revealed hybridization with cultivated beet in one of the sea beet populations from the centre of the Danish seed propagation area. Triploid hybrids found in this population were verified... |

| Co-existence with GM crops: grasses, clover and fodder beet In 2006 the global cultivation of genetically modified crops increased with 13% and reached 102 million hectares. The GM crops cultivated are mainly soybean, maize, cotton and oilseed rape, but other modified crops are appearing, e.g. in 2006 herbicide tolerant alfalfa was commercialized in US. Also in Europe, GM crop cultivation is increasing with the largest areas in Rumania and Spain followed by Portugal, France, Germany, Czech Republic and Slovakia. To ensure that farmers and consumers can choose freely what food they want to grow and eat, national co-existence rules are now being fixed by law. The measures to keep GM crops and NON-GM crops separated will be crop specific, because the... |
