Jyrbä se vaan jaksaa väittää etteivät GM-kasvit menesty ja että ne osoittavat ettei evoluutio toimi ja blaa blaa blaa. No, laitetaanpas nyt vähän oikeaa tietoa asiasta, niin jospa se uppaisi sinne jyrbän umpiluiseen kalloonkin:
Genetically Modified Crop on the Loose and Evolving in U.S. Midwest
That likely means that transgenic canola plants are cross-pollinating in the wild—and swapping introduced genes. Although GM canola in the wild has been identified everywhere from Canada to Japan in previous research, this marks the first time such plants have been shown to be evolving in this way. "They had novel combinations of transgenic traits," Sagers says. "The most parsimonious explanation is these traits are stable outside of cultivation and they are evolving."

3) Claim: Farmers can't replant genetically modified seeds.
So-called terminator genes, which can make seeds sterile, never made it out of the patent office in the 1990s. Seed companies do require farmers to sign agreements that prohibit replanting in order to ensure annual sales, but Kent Bradford, a plant scientist at the University of California, Davis, says large-scale commercial growers typically don't save seeds anyway. Corn is a hybrid of two lines from the same species, so its seeds won't pass on the right traits to the next generation. Cotton and soy seeds could be saved, but most farmers don't bother. "The quality deteriorates—they get weeds and so on—and it's not a profitable practice," Bradford says.

One Billion Hectares Worldwide Have Now Been Planted With Genetically Modified Crops
That's more than the land mass of the United States

Joten jospa jyri lopettaisit nyt sen valehtelun GM-viljasta ja keksisit toisen harhan?
