转基因昆虫已广泛应用于人类生产生活的很多领域。但与此同时,其安全性以及释放后为生态环境带来的风险等,也是人们一直关注的问题。1996年,全球转基因作物种植面积仅有170万公顷。在短短21年的商业化进程当中,转基因作物在全球迅速开疆拓土,2016年全球种植总面积达到1.851亿公顷,实现了110倍的增长。相较于转基因作物得到越来越多的理解和认可,转基因昆虫的前路似乎显得未知而坎坷。 GM insects have been widely used in many areas of human production and life. However, at the same time, their safety and the risks they pose to the ecological environment after their release have also been problems that people have been paying attention to. In 1996, the global area of ​​genetically modified crops was only 1.7 million hectares. In the course of just 21 years of commercialization, GMOs have been rapidly expanding their territories around the world. In 2016, the total area planted in the world reached 185.1 million hectares, a 110-fold increase. Compared with the transgenic crops more and more understanding and recognition, the front road of transgenic insects seems unpredictable and frustrating.
