Pollen-mediated gene flow and seed exchange in small-scale Zambian maize farming, implications for biosafety assessment

Gene flow in agricultural crops is important for risk assessment of genetically modified (GM) crops, particularly in countries with a large informal agricultural sector of subsistence cultivation. We present a pollen flow model for maize (Zea mays), a major staple crop in Africa. We use spatial prop...
