Current methods of qualitative and quantitative analysis of genetically modified plants have been analyzed. PCR, quantification real time PCR and multiple PCR are the most popular among them. New analytical approaches for the identification, detection and quantification of transgenic DNA have described. Special attention is devoted to the biosensors and microarray methods that allow detecting simultaneously different transgenic features simultaneously.

Key words: GMO, PCR, real time PCR, DNA biosensors, microarray analysis.
