This series represents a compilation of the biosafety consensus documents developed by the OECD Working Group on Harmonisation of Regulatory Oversight in Biotechnology over the periods 2011-12 (Volume 5) and 2013-15 (Volume 6). Volumes 5 and 6 describe the biology, centres of origin, genetics, hybridisation, production and use, and ecology elements of several crops (sugarcane, cassava, sorghum, common bean, cucurbits) and trees (eucalyptus species). They also provide considerations on pathogenicity factors in assessing the potential adverse health effects of bacteria, and the low level presence of transgenic plants in seed and grain commodities. The consensus documents contain information for use during the regulatory assessment of products of modern biotechnology, i.e. transgenic organisms (plants, animals, micro-organisms), when intended for release in the environment. As such, it should be of value to applicants for use of genetically-engineered organisms in agriculture mainly, to regulators and risk assessors in national authorities for their biosafety assessments, as well as the wider scientific community. More information on this OECD programme is found at BioTrack online (www.oecd.org/biotrack).

These OECD Biosafety Consensus Documents identify elements of scientific information used in the environmental safety and risk assessment of transgenic organisms which are common to OECD member countries. This is intended to encourage information sharing and prevent duplication of effort among countries. This book offers ready access to those consensus documents which have been published thus far. As such, it should be of value to applicants for commercial uses of transgenic crops, regulators in national authorities as well as the wider scientific community. More information on the OECD's work related to the biosafety of transgenic organisms is found at BioTrack Online (http://www.oecd.org/biotrack).

Bringing together the ideas of experts from around the world, this incisive text offers cutting-edge perspectives on the risk analysis and governance of genetically modified organisms (GMOs), supporting effective and informed decision-making in developing countries. Comprised of four comprehensive sections, this book covers: integrated risk analysis and decision making, giving an overview of the science involved and examining risk analysis methods that impact decision-making on the release of GMOs, particularly in developing countries; diversification of expertise involved in risk analysis and practical ways in which the lack of expertise in developing countries can be overcome; risk analysis based regulatory systems and how they can be undermined by power relationships and socio-political interests, as well as strategies for improving GMO policy development and regulatory decision-making; and case studies from developing countries providing lessons based on real-world experience that can inform our current thinking.

Seit 2004 werden in der Europäischen Gemeinschaft Import, Anbau und Verarbeitung von gentechnisch veränderten Kulturpflanzen wieder genehmigt. Verbindliche Auflage ist jedoch, mögliche schädigende Wirkungen der GVO auf die Umwelt zu beobachten. Dafür gibt die EU den rechtlichen Rahmen vor, die Ausgestaltung dieses Monitorings ist jedoch nicht abschließend geregelt.Verschiedene Empfehlungen sind derzeit in der Diskussion, wie Gefahren für die Schutzgüter Gesundheit und Umwelt am besten erkannt werden können. Zu den diskutierten Konzepten gehören nicht nur repräsentative Methoden der Umweltbeobachtung, sondern auch geeignete Verfahren, wie die Monitoringdaten zusammenhängend auszuwerten und zu beurteilen sind.Daran arbeiten für den Bund ebenso wie für die Europäische Gemeinschaft und die Bundesländer zahlreiche WissenschaftlerInnen. Ziel ist die Entwicklung geeigneter Indikatoren und standardisierter Methoden, um die Einflüsse auf die Schutzgüter zu erfassen. Das Bundesamt für Naturschutz ist intensiv an diesem Prozess beteiligt.Der vorliegende Band präsentiert bestehende Konzepte und Entwicklungen auf dem Gebiet des Monitorings gentechnisch veränderter Organismen aus dem deutschspra-chigen Raum (Deutschland, Österreich, Schweiz): – Erfüllen die Konzepte die Anforderungen des Naturschutzes? – Sind sie tragfähig für die Regelungspraxis von EU, Bund und Ländern? – Bieten Datenerhebung und -verarbeitung ausreichende Qualität? – Können Synergien mit etablierten Maßnahmen genutzt werden? – Wie werden die Ergebnisse bewertet? – Bestehen noch konzeptionelle Fehlstellen beim Monitoring von GVO-Wirkungen?
