This article (https://www.hindawi.com/journals/isrn/2011/369573/) discusses some relevant issues regarding genetically modified organisms (GMOs).
-Genetic Contamination/Interbreeding
-Competition with Natural Species
-Increased Selection Pressure on Target and Nontarget Organisms
-Ecosystem Impacts
-Horizontal Transfer of Recombinant Genes to Other Microorganisms
-Unpredictable and Unintended Effects

It’s very long & detailed but just scan it for some relevant headings & read just enough to understand the key concepts relevant to your query.
