随着转基因植物在全球的广泛种植，转基因植物环境释放引起生态环境风险受到人们的广泛关注。本书分九个章节集结了39个转基因植物生物安全评价研究案例。第一章介绍了转基因植物环境释放后转基因通过种子和花粉介导的基因流在环境种的扩散；第二章研究了转基因表达的蛋白质在土壤和水体等环境介质中的残留和扩散；第三章和第四章分别介绍了转基因植物通过转基因及其表达的蛋白对靶标和非靶标生物个体的影响；第五章和第六章分别介绍了转基因植物进入环境后由于竞争对非转基因植物及其近缘种的影响；第七章研究了转基因植物进入环境后对一些类群的生物多样性影响；第八章关注气候变化条件下的转基因植物环境释放后的生态风险；第九章介绍了一些降低转基因植物环境释放生态风险的研究案例。
