Tolerance and growth responses of populus hybrids and their genetically modified varieties to simulated leaf damage and harvest
Axelsson, Petter; Hjältén, Joakim
Abstract
Our results give a strong indication that the growth responses of the GM varieties to leaf damage and harvest were substantially equivalent with their corresponding non-GM varieties. These similarities predict that the effect of damage on production should be alike regardless of if the GM or non-GM products are used. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
