(Brookes and Barfoot 2006). With adoption of
the new refi nements in wheat transformation
technology listed in this section, which will allow
integration and expression of only the genes of
interest without unintended effects on other
plant traits or on the food safety of the grain,
such tangible benefi ts may eventually override
perceived risks.
