The Swiss agbiotech giant Syngenta will collaborate with the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences to identify and develop new traits such as drought tolerance, the company announced on Monday. Financial details of this 5-year agreement were not disclosed. China has approved more than a dozen genetically modified plants, such as rice and soybean, for commercialization or field trials since 1997 and designated modified crop development a "major engineering project" in its science and technology plan for 2006 to 2020.
