Detection of Edited Alleles in Grain Consignments has moved quickly from a research idea to something a working breeding or
production programme can actually use, but the evidence behind it has not always kept pace. We pull together the current
evidence for detection of edited alleles in grain consignments, covering the methodological, practical, regulatory and cost angles,
with an eye on where practice has genuinely settled and where researchers and regulators are still largely working it out for
themselves. Selective, context-specific adoption looks better supported by the evidence gathered here than either broad rollout or
blanket avoidance.
