A plant species is a group of plants that fertilize between them and form new offspring that are very similar to each other. If different species are fertilized with each other, hybrid species are formed in this way and genetic diversity in nature increases. Genetically modified plants are also fertilized with their traditional or wild counterparts and produce hybrid species. If this form of fertilization is involuntary, it is called gene escape. For example, GMO canola can be planted in a field next to a field planted with canola. However, the pollen of genetically modified plants can spread quite far under the influence of the wind.
The most common application in genetic modification technology is to provide resistance to insects and herbicides. For example, Bt toxin, in which DNA is encoded from a bacterium called bacillus thuringiensis, provides protection by killing self-harming insects. By gene transfer, the canola plant is thus provided with insect resistance.
As a result, the genetically modified MS8 canola strain is also a canola strain that has been tolerant to herbicides. In this way, efficiency increases and costs is falling.
In the test, analysis, measurement and evaluation studies carried out in our organization, national and international standards and applicable legal regulations are complied with and reliable and impartial results are obtained. These studies are based on the latest technological equipment, trained and experienced staff and modern methods. Among the numerous tests carried out in this context, MS8 canola type determination and quantity analysis services are also available.
