The Impact of Biotechnology of Plant Varieties on the Environment in the Light of Bioethics
Biotechnology of plant varieties is one of the important issues that have different dimensions and in this paper an attempt has been made to investigate its impact on the environment in the light of biological ethics.
The research method is descriptive-analytical and has been done using library resources.
Ethical Considerations:
In all stages of writing the present study, the originality of the texts, honesty and trustworthiness have been respected.
Biotechnology of plant varieties has an impact on the environment through the possibility of genetic changes on non-genetically manipulated plant species, adverse effects on insects and reduction of biodiversity. Genetic changes cause damage to some organisms (such as pests and insects) in the ecosystem and reduce their biodiversity. Biotechnology of plant cultivars has been considered from the point of view of bioethics. The World Health Organization (WHO) with actions, such as how to label the information of genetically modified products and the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) with the establishment of the Codex Alimentarius Commission jointly with the WHO, the establishment of the International Plant Protection Convention and the International Convention on Food and Agricultural Genetic Resources and technical meetings have emphasized biological ethics in the biotechnology process of plant varieties.
Adopting a fair agricultural policy, strengthening research, trying to improve plants with the participation of farmers, developing the genetic basis of plants and the widespread use of native crops and breeding methods, are regarded as the most important methods and the mechanisms to pay attention to bioethics in the process of biotechnology of plant varieties.
