With 5.6 million new hectares (35%) of transgenic crops, Brazil supplanted Argentina to become the 2nd largest cultivator. China's transgenic plantings shrank, although biosafety certificates were issued for Bacillus thuringiensis(Bt) rice and phytase maize, clearing the way to commercialization. The first transgenic high oleic soybean was approved in the US, as were disease-resistant varieties of plum and papaya. 2010 plantings of glyphosate-resistant sugarbeet await a US Federal Court ruling.
