dc.description.abstractIn 2008, China initiated the National GM Variety Development Special Program (GMSP), which supplemented existing funding mechanisms for genetically modified (GM) agricultural research with $3.8 billion in 2008–2020. The aim of the GMSP was to spur growth in the agricultural research sector. We present here the abridged results of a survey of all Chinese public universities and research institutes involved in GMSP, with the aim of estimating the current capacity in terms of manpower in the agricultural biotech sector and to assess the effects of GMSP on agricultural research.en
