Abstract:

The development of optimal breeding strategies for rice (Oryza sativa), an important commercial crop in
China, has always been the focus of research. The emergence of Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) insect-resistant genes opens
up a new area of research on the breeding of transgenic insect-resistant crops with the exogenous genes. Until now, the
breeding technology of transgenic Bt rice has become increasingly mature, while its potential danger to human health is still
controversial. The commercialization of this transgenic rice has become the focus of public attention. In this paper, the recent
progress in the food safety evaluation of transgenic Bt rice is reviewed, so as to provide references for the risk assessment
and popularization of transgenic Bt rice in China.

Key words: transgenic Bt rice, safety evaluation, food safety
