GM plodiny přispívají k lepšímu zdraví pěstitelů i spotřebitelů
20.12.2019 | Informujeme Vás - doporučujeme
Mohou být geneticky modifikované (GM) plodiny zdravější než konvenční protějšky? A/nebo jiným způsobem přispívat k lepšímu zdraví jejich uživatelů? Jde o celkem kontroverzní otázky, neboť doposud jsme se většinou ptali: Jsou GM plodiny rizikovější než ty tradiční, nemodifikované, dlouhodobě užívané?
