Abstract

With the rapid development of biotechnology, transgenic technology has been widely used around the world, especially in agriculture and medical fields showing great potential. However, the safety of Gmos has always been a focus of concern for the public, scientists and policymakers. By analyzing the basic principles and application examples of transgenic technology, this paper evaluates the ecological and environmental risks and food safety issues that may be brought about by genetically modified organisms. In particular, data tables show the potential impacts of GM crops on ecosystems and their assessment of food safety. The study notes that while GM technology has the advantage of improving crop yield and stress resistance, its safety assessment requires a more rigorous scientific approach and a transparent risk management process. In recent years, relevant technologies have been gradually applied in the fields of research on gene function, production of animal bioreactors and construction of human disease animal models, etc., making the research of livestock gene function more efficient. This paper aims to provide a scientific basis for developing more rational regulatory policies, and suggests that future studies focus more on long-term effects and public acceptance.
