GE papaya and eggplants to be marketed in 2 year in the Philippines
Within two years, the Philippines will be a commercial producer of genetically modified (GM) eggplant and papaya. This is the timetable of studies being done at the University of the Philippines Los Baños-Institute of Plant Breeding (UPLB-IPB). In a 1.5-hectare fenced field experimental area within the sprawling UPLB complex, GM eggplants are lushly growing while biotech papaya plants have just been transplanted.
