Genetically modified organism containment and escape

Since the advent of genetic engineering in the 1970s, concerns have been raised about the dangers of the technology. Laws, regulations, and treaties were created in the years following to contain genetically modified organisms and prevent their escape.Nonentheless, there are several examples of failure to keep GM crops separate from conventional ones.
