Annotated Bibliographies for Environmental/Ecological Impacts of Transgenic Organisms
 Compiled by Dr. LaReesa Wolfenbarger
 Last updated September, 2003

To increase awareness and accessibility of peer-reviewed journal articles with data addressing environmental and ecological impacts of transgenic organisms, we have compiled an annotated bibliography with abstracts. Science Citation Index was queried using a series of broad search terms. Abstracts were sorted into three categories: data papers (empirical or theoretical), issue papers (no data), and papers on other topics. Abstracts that indicated the paper contained original data (and those where it was ambiguous) were sorted into five topics: Plants–unintended effects, Plants–resistance management, Plants–gene flow, Microorganisms, and Animals. These are available for use in the following formats:

 

Animals Acrobat (.pdf)   MS-Word (.doc)   Endnote (.enl)*   Rich Text (.rtf)   Web  
Microorganisms Acrobat (.pdf)   MS-Word (.doc)   Endnote (.enl)*   Rich Text (.rtf)   Web  
Plants I – Gene Flow Acrobat (.pdf)   MS-Word (.doc)   Endnote (.enl)*   Rich Text (.rtf)   Web  
Plants II – Unintended Effects Acrobat (.pdf)   MS-Word (.doc)   Endnote (.enl)*   Rich Text (.rtf)   Web  
Plants III – Resistance Management   Acrobat (.pdf)   MS-Word (.doc)   Endnote (.enl)*   Rich Text (.rtf)   Web  

*Endnote files must be downloaded and imported to view.
