Detection and monitoring of released organisms in the environment is required and DNA:DNA colony hybridization seems to be one of the highly sensitive and accurate technologies available for achieving this goal. A realistic and pragmatic view is required for analysis of the risks of environmental release of genetically-modified or engineered organisms.
