Description

Recently our trust in food labeling has been shaken badly and the infringement of breeder's right has happened occasionally in Japan. Under such circumstances, cultivar identification technologies based on DNA analysis for agricultural products and processed food have been developed for several crop species. The technologies are leading to proper food labeling system and a deterrent effect on the infringement of right recently. Here, the author review the progress of the several cultivar identification technologies based on DNA analysis and discuss the future prospect on the technologies hoping that they will become the "DNA testing" for all crop species.
