Sugar beet gene flow and coexistence impacts ? EU project SIGMEA (WP2)

Original language description

The overall objective of the EU-funded project SIGMEA is to set up a science-based framework, strategies, methods and tools for assessing ecological and economical impacts of GM crops. In this respect, a group of six research teams contributed datasets on sugar beet to fulfil crop-specific aims. Obtaining certified non-GM seeds in seed multiplication areas should be the main aim of a European strategy for coexistence in beet. As gene flow from GM sugar beet to weed beet is hardly avoidable, management measures should include appropriate isolation distances in seed production and bolter control in crop cultivation. Between-field separation distances between GM and non-GM sugar beet can be very low as long as the crop is grown vegetatively for sugar production and mixing at harvest is avoided. Geneflow from GM beet to (wild) sea beet will be low and unlikely to introduce any selective advantage, but wild forms should be actively conserved since they constitute the genetic resource for fu
