Notes

What happened to make Roundup Ready & Roundup come to be?
What is Roundup Ready and what are Roundup-ready crops? Roundup Ready is a trademark name for a patented line of genetically modified seeds that are immune to the glyphosate-based herbicide, Roundup. http://74novosti.ru/user/roundup22pwhx924/ are referred to as Roundup Ready.

Who invented Roundup?
John Franz, a Monsanto chemist discovered that Glyphosate was the active ingredient in Roundup in the year 1970. Most herbicides of that period were preemergent. They were used before the crop and weeds developed. The unique post-emergent effectiveness of glyphosate at controlling vast amounts of broadleaf weeds was astonishing. http://sc.sie.gov.hk/TuniS/pesticide.maff.go.jp/agricultural-chemicals/details/14360 , coupled with its exceptional environmental (soil degradation, rapid degradation, etc.) and toxicological properties (extremely toxic to mammals (and beneficial organisms) and created a remarkable product.

When was Roundup was created?
Roundup(r) was introduced into the market in 1974, as a broad-spectrum herbicide. http://ezproxy.cityu.edu.hk/login?url=https://www.komeri.com/search/ラウンドアップ/?dispNo=&codeSearch=0&searchFirst=1 became one of world's leading agricultural chemicals. It was initially used on railroads, in ditches as well as on fields during the growth seasons. This gave farmers the capability to control the growth of grasses and broadleafweeds in the soil. In this manner, they could reduce the need for tillage, preserve soil structure, and also reduce erosion of soil.

The Roundup Ready GMOs case was next.
Monsanto scientists saw the potential benefits that Roundup(r) which is a recombinant DNA product might bring to farmers following the breakthroughs made in the 1970s. This issue was tackled by a select group of scientistsincluding Dr. http://www.lawrence.com/users/roundup33gzab087/ and Steve Rogers. ラウンドアップ for introducing genes into the plant were created by this team during the first half of 1980. Then we turned our attention to the development of virusresistant and insect-resistant and Roundup-resistant crops.

It was found out that Roundup was able to block the biochemical pathway in plants that create aromatic amino acids. (Both animals as well as humans do not have this pathway, which could explain Roundup’s high level for mammalian safety). Furthermore, it was quickly decomposed in the soil by microorganisms. Our researchers had discovered the genes of plants and microbial organisms to increase the tolerance to herbicides. Roundup Ready plants was approved for field testing by the USDA in 1987. This was a Roundup-resistant plant that was genetically modified to produce tomatoes that proved resistant to Roundup. After a few years, the Roundup Ready trait, which was the bacteria genetic that was isolated, was introduced to other crops.

Let's take soybeans as an illustration. We will answer the following questions: What are Roundup-ready soybeans? How are Roundup ready soybeans made. Roundup Ready soybeans can be described as genetically engineered soybeans that have their DNA modified to resist Roundup's main ingredient known as Glyphosate. This soybean is tolerant to Roundup since each seed has the Roundup Ready gene that has been infected before it is planted. Farmers can use Roundup Ready gene in their fields to spray and not harm their crops.

Roundup Ready crops, which were introduced in 1996 revolutionized agricultural research and agriculture. Roundup resistance was quickly recognized by farmers and widespread adoption occurred. Today, more that 90 percent of U.S. soybeans and cotton use Roundup Ready crops. In addition to simplifying and improving weed management systems that increased yields for crops Roundup Ready crops cut down on the need to tilde and also reduced the cost of equipment and also allowed for more efficient harvests because of "cleaner fields" with fewer plants. The increase in the utilization of conservation tillage can be an environmental benefit that is significant. By reducing plowing, farmers reduce energy consumption and GHG emission while maintaining soil structure and reducing erosion. This is equivalent to removing 28.4 billion kilograms of carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere in 2013, or 12.4 million vehicles off roads for a year (Source: , PG Economics).
