中文摘要：

转基因作物的商品化生产和大规模环境释放在带来巨大利益的同时，也引起了全球对其生物安全问题的广泛关注和争议，其中转基因通过花粉介导的基因漂移逃逸到非转基因作物及其野生近缘种，进而导致的潜在环境和生态风险就是备受争议的生物安全问题之一。转基因植物的环境生物安全涉及两方面关键问题：如何科学评价转基因植物商品化种植以后带来的环境和生态影响；如何利用环境生物安全的研究成果来制定科学有效的风险监测和管理措施。对转基因逃逸及其潜在生态风险的科学评价应包括三个重要环节：（1）检测转基因的逃逸的频率；（2）检测转基因逃逸后的表达和遗传规律；（3）确定逃逸后的转基因对野生近缘种群体适合度的影响及其进化潜力,本文将围绕对转基因逃逸及其潜在环境风险的科学评价，以转基因水稻为案例来对转基因逃逸带来生态影响的研究好评价的进展进行简要介绍，并对目前依据风险评价研究成果制定的各种管理策略进行了讨论。只有提高对转基因生物环境安全研究和评价的水平，并制定有效的风险监测和管理措施，才能为我国转基因技术的发展和转基因产品的商品化应用保驾护航。

英文摘要：

The commercialization and extensive environmental release of transgenic crops have not only brought huge economic and social benefits, but also aroused worldwide concerns and debates over the biosafety issues. Among these, transgene escape via gene flow and its potential environmental risks is the most debated issue. There are two important aspects concerning environmental biosafety of transgenic plants： how to effectively assess environmental impacts brought by transgenic plants after extensive commercial cultivation; and how to strategically utilize scientific results obtained from research and assessment to effectively mitigate and manage the potential ecological risks. To effectively evaluate the ecological consequences scientifically, three steps should be involved： （i）to measure the frequency of transgene escape, （ii）to study the expression and inheritance patterns of transgenes in wild relatives after escape, and （iii）to analyze fitness impacts of the transgenes in wild populations. This article will focus on the current status of environmental biosafety researches and assessment, using the studies on transgenicrice as a case, and the scientific strategies applied to mitigate and manage the ecological risks caused by transgene escape. The rigorous assessment of ecological risks and the effective risk managements will facilitate the beneficial utilization of transgenic crops and reduce the potential biosafety impacts.
