• Effects of transgenic plants on soil microorganisms (2005, background): “…functional responses of the microbial community to “normal” variation in soil systems (such as season, weather, crop rotation, pesticide use, etc) (Bruinsma et al., 2003), the conceptual limitation on the relationship of effects and risks, i.e. what effects are detrimental and should be studied…”
• Assessing changes in soil microbial communities and carbon mineralization in Bt and non-Bt corn residue-amended soils (2007, methodology): “In summary, we used several complementary techniques (C mineralization, culturable bacteria assays, Biolog metabolic fingerprinting, PCR-DGGE) that have been widely used to study the effects of genetically modified plants on soil microbial communities and processes (Bruinsma et al., 2003).”
• Extracellular DNA in soil and sediment: fate and ecological relevance (2009, background): “The persistence of this DNA in both microcosm and field conditions depends on environmental conditions stimulating microbial activity such as soil moisture and temperature (Widmer et al. 1996, 1997; Paget and Simonet 1997; Gebhard and Smalla 1999; Bruinsma et al. 2003; DeVries et al. 2003).”
• Plant-driven selection of microbes (2009, background): “The impact of this modification of root exudation has been studied extensively as model system of the impact of engineered plants on soil ecosystem (Bruinsma et al. 2003; Kowalchuk et al. 2003).”
• A Comparison of Soil Microbial Community Structure, Protozoa and Nematodes in Field Plots of Conventional and Genetically Modified Maize Expressing the Bacillus thuringiens is CryIAb Toxin (2005, background): “Despite the large area of Bt maize and other crops, and the potential for effects on non-target soil organisms, the number of studies is still relatively small (see for example reviews by Bruinsma et al., 2003; Groot and Dicke, 2002).”
