  1. Current Status of GMO's Small Grains Michael D. Peel

  2. Percent of small grain production in GMO varieties • Wheat 100% • Durum 100% • Barley 100% • Oat 100% • Triticale 100% Species created by humans

  3. The Real Topic is:Current Status of Transgenic Small Grains Michael D. Peel

  4. Percent of small grain production in transgenic varieties • Wheat 0% • Durum 0% • Barley 0% • Oat 0% • Triticale 0% depends on definition

  5. No production of transgenic varieties does not mean that genetic transformation of these crops is not being done

  6. Transgenic developments in barley • Applications to test 29 • Product quality 16 Storage protein, Heat stable glucanase, Digestibility improved • Marker gene 6 Green florescence • Fungal Resistance 2 Fusarium resistance • Herbicide tolerance 2 Glyphosate • Viral resistance 1 BYDV • Other 2

  7. Transgenic developments in oat • Applications to test 1 • Fungal resistance (BYDV)

  8. Transgenic developments in rice and Russian wild rye • Applications to test • Rice 123 • Russian wild rye 1

  9. Transgenic developments in wheat • Applications to test 204 • Herbicide tolerance 125 • Virus resistance 26 WSMV, BYDV • Fungal resistance 22 Fusarium, Mildew • Agronomic properties 22 Nitrogen metabolism altered, Drought • Product quality 13 Storage protein, Starch • Marker gene 8 • Other 1 Pharmaceutical
