                    [Summary] => 

It’s but a matter of time before genetically modified (GM) or Bt eggplant will become a part of the country’s vegetable landscape.


Developed in India, the first GM eggplant variety was introduced in the Philippines two years ago.


Tested under "contained" conditions in the greenhouses of the University of the Philippines Los Baños-Institute of Plant Breeding (UPLB-IPB), the Bt (Bacillus thuringiensis) crop is programmed to "graduate" to a "confined" (still limited but outside the greenhouse) environment in early 2007.

                    [Summary] => 

It’s but a matter of time before genetically modified (GM) or Bt eggplant will become a part of the country’s vegetable landscape.


Developed in India, the first GM eggplant variety was introduced in the Philippines two years ago.


Tested under "contained" conditions in the greenhouses of the University of the Philippines Los Baños-Institute of Plant Breeding (UPLB-IPB), the Bt (Bacillus thuringiensis) crop is programmed to "graduate" to a "confined" (still limited but outside the greenhouse) environment in early 2007.
