{"product_id":"genetically-engineered-organisms-lexie-reid-9781641167901","title":"Genetically Engineered Organisms: Environmental and Economic Risk Assessment","description":"Genetically engineered organisms or genetically modified organisms (GMO) are animals, plants or microorganisms whose DNA has been altered using genetic engineering techniques. They can be classified into categories such as genetically modified crops, genetically modified medicines and genetically modified animals. Genetically modified crops are the crops whose genes have been modified. They are also called transgenic crops. The main objective of developing these crops is to increase the yield and to produce disease-resistant crops. These crops have entered the markets and have become a part of the global food supply chain. However, genetically modified animals are mainly restricted for research purposes. This book outlines the environmental and economic risks and benefits associated with genetically engineered organisms. Some of the diverse topics covered herein address the varied organisms that fall under this category. The book is appropriate for students seeking detailed information in this area as well as for experts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lexie Reid\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1641167904\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781641167901\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Callisto Reference\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/26\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 255\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.13lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.63d","brand":"Lexie Reid","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44245101969663,"sku":"9781641167901","price":162.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fc9c4a1b-3ea3-4b50-a53c-a2b652430457.jpg?v=1693926138","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/genetically-engineered-organisms-lexie-reid-9781641167901","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
