Abstract: In recent years, great achievements have been made on crop genetic engineering research and commercialization since the first transgenic plant was obtained in 1983. A large number of crop varieties with herbicide tolerance, insect resistance, disease resistance, stress tolerance and good quality have been developed and released in commerce. These new GMO (genetic modified organism) crops have played important roles in promoting agricultural production and crops resistance mechanisms studies. The commercialization and researching status of transgenic crops were reviewed in this paper. And also some suggestions on the problem of transgenic crops were brought forward.
