Abstract: Genetically modified (GM) technology is the core of modern biotechnology, which can break the boundaries between species to achieve targeted transformation of crop traits. It plays an important role and great potential in easing resource constraints, reducing ecological environment pollution, ensuring food safety, saving water, increasing use efficiency, and expanding agricultural functions. This paper  comprehensively reviewed   the general development process of global GM crops industrialization and introduced the current status and safety management framework in China, including the regulatory system and safety assessment system to  provide theoretical guidance for promoting the development of agricultural biotechnology and the industrialization of GM crops in China.

Key words: genetically modified crops, research and development status, safety administration, safety assessment

摘要： 转基因技术是现代生物技术的核心，可以打破物种间界限，从而实现作物目标性状的定向改造，在缓解资源约束、减少生态环境污染、保障食物安全、改进农产品质量、节水增效、拓展农业功能等方面显示出重要作用和巨大潜力。综述了全球转基因作物产业化进程及目前的发展规模，介绍了我国农业转基因作物的研发现状及安全管理框架，包括法规制度体系和安全评价体系，旨在为推进我国转基因作物的研发、产业化以及农业生物技术的发展提供相关理论指导。
