We agree with Schubert that the article's use of “public sector” as a descriptor for the crop scientists quoted in the piece was potentially misleading, given their ties to industry. Schubert also refers to the IAASTD report as support for the Gurian-Sherman manuscript. For this journal's analysis of IAASTD, the reader is referred to an editorial1 and related correspondence2,3.
