Screenshot von der Webseite des Deutschlandfunks mit der Überschrift: Grüne Gentechnik: EU will Regulierung lockern, Interview Robert Hoffie, IPK
Die Einigung im Trilog letzte Nacht hat zu vielen Fragen geführt.
Im Interview mit @forschungaktuell.bsky.social im Deutschlandfunk habe ich versucht, einige davon zu beantworten:

Schnelles Update nach der Einigung in der letzten Nacht auf neue Regeln für NGT-Pflanzen. Kernpunkte: NGT1-Pflanzen im Kern wie konventionelle. Aber: Deutlich strengere Kriterien. Alle übrigen NGT-Pflanzen (NGT2) weiterhin wie GVO. www.transgen.de/aktuell/2880...

Weil es viele Meldungen verkürzt darstellen:
Die #Gentechnik -Regeln in der EU werden im Kern nicht geändert. Es wird lediglich eine Ausnahme-Regel für Pflanzen geschaffen, die mit neuen Techniken gezüchtet wurden, aber äquivalent zu konventionellen sind. Für alle anderen gelten die alten Regeln.
Die Präsidentin der Universität Osnabrück, Prof. Dr. Susanne Menzel Riedl, wird zum 1. Oktober 2026 neue Rektorin der Universität Münster. Sie tritt damit die Nachfolge von Prof. Dr. Johannes Wessels an, der seit 2016 im Amt ist.

Figure 1 from Kinoshita and Finkemeier article showing gas-exchange measurements of petiole-cut Arabidopsis leaves in the whole plant chambers of the LI-6800 system. Panel A shows a schematic diagram of the method i.e. petiole cutting on wet paper and insertion of leaves into a parafilm-sealed dish containing water. Panels B-E are graphs that show C02 assimilation and transpiration rates under different conditions tested
Chamber of Secrets?

Thrilled to share our latest short technical paper in PCP!
We propose an alternative leaf-level gas exchange measurement method with petiole-cut leaves and whole plant chamber, enabling the measurements even with the small Arabidopsis plants.🌱
