Transgene Escape

Transgene Escape is a genetic phenomenon in which an artificially inserted gene (transgene) moves from a genetically modified organism to a wild or non-modified population through mechanisms such as cross-pollination, horizontal gene transfer, or unintended dispersal, thereby propagating beyond its intended biological or ecological boundary.
