Abstract

Highlights: [•] Stability of transgenic bean lines immune (the RNAi concept) to the Bean golden mosaic virus was confirmed for at least 8 generations and after crosses. [•] siRNA signals were detected in leaves and in developing seeds but not cooked grains. [•] The information presented here is relevant for the social acceptance and consumption of GM beans-based food. [•] This study provides a method for detection and identification of these GM beans in the field and market. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
