Biological confinement of genetically engineered organisms

"Biological Confinement of Genetically Engineered Organisms examines biological methods that may be used with genetically engineered plants, animals, microbes, and fungi. Bioconfinement methods have been applied successfully to a few non-engineered organisms, but many promising techniques remain in the conceptual and experimental stages of development. This book reviews and evaluates these methods, discusses when and why to consider their use and assesses how effectively they offer a significant reduction of the risks engineered organisms can present to the environment."--BOOK JACKET.
