or modify it to develop a superior plant with all favorable traits through transgenics. The study's coauthors are ORNL's Robert Hettich Paul Abraham Richard Giannone Rachel Adams Udaya Kalluri and Gerald Tuskan.

The Meduni Vienna-team investigated immune responses in mice fed several varieties of beans non-transgenic peas

and the transgenic peas expressing the bean or the transgenic versions of the Î-amylase inhibitor.

or from peas genetically modified to express the inhibitor and even in non-transgenic peas.

These results demonstrate that Î AI transgenic peas are no more allergenic than beans or non-transgenic peas in mice Dr. Epstein added.

It is also vital that investigators are aware of potential unexpected crossreactive allergic responses upon the consumption of plant products as we found in the non-transgenic peas.

so using natural plant breeding methods not transgenics said Rocheford the Patterson Endowed Chair of Translational Genomics for Crop Improvement.

or two human transgenes to prevent blood from clotting. The transplanted hearts were attached to the circulatory systems of the host baboons but placed in the baboons'abdomens.

The simple avoidance of introducing foreign genes makes genetically edited crops more natural than transgenic crops obtained by inserting foreign genes said Chidananda Nagamangala Kanchiswamy of Istituto Agrario San Michele in Italy.

Most transgenic fruit crop plants have been developed using a plant bacterium to introduce foreign genes and only papaya has been commercialized in part because of stringent regulation in the European union (EU). The researchers say that genetically edited plants modified through the insertion deletion

#Transgenic mice produce both omega-3, omega-6 fatty acids on carbohydrate dietmassachusetts General Hospital (MGH) investigators have developed a transgenic mouse that synthesizes both the omega-3 and omega-6 essential

and in 2004 Kang's group reported that mice transgenic for a c. elegans gene called fat-1 converted omega-6s into omega-3s in their tissues.

The current study describes how crossbreeding the fat-1 mouse with another strain transgenic for the c. elegans gene fat-2

While there are regulatory issues that need to be addressed this transgenic approach may help meet the increasing demand for omega-3-rich foods

Cary Mitchell professor of horticulture said the technique could be particularly useful for growing transgenic crops to produce high-value medicinal products such as antibodies for the budding plant-derived industrial and pharmaceutical compounds industry.

He said that former mines could be prime locations to grow high-value transgenic plants

They found that all of these foreign-species prions can cause prion disease in the transgenic mice

because the transgenic mice express higher levels of bank vole Prp than are naturally present in the voles.

Because the transgenic mice develop prion disease rapidly the scientists propose that the mice will be useful tools in studying the processes by

and conventional farmers have adopted widely transgenic Bt crops since 1996. In 2013 Bt corn and Bt cotton were planted on 187 million acres worldwide

and use them to classify 13 cases of resistance to five Bt toxins in transgenic corn

They usually evolve resistance to any tactic that's used repeatedly to control them so this problem is limited not to transgenic crops.

Non-transgenic Desiree plants were infected 100 by early August while all GM plants remained fully resistant to the end of the experiment.

and the adoption of transgenic Bt (Bacillus thuringiensis cotton which is modified to express its own pesticide the researchers found that the value of the pest control services dropped 79 percent from a high of $23. 96 million in 1990

Now Co. Exist reports on transgenic goats that produce milk with breast milk enzymes and proteins.

UC Davis scientists created the transgenic goats by transferring human genes for breast milk enzymes and proteins into goat embryos.

The transgenic dairy goats can make milk with up to about 60%of the lysozyme and lactoferrin found in mother's milk,

milk from these transgenic goats could provide the next-best alternative. The UC Davis team has been studying the engineered goats'milk for a number of years now to perfect the formula (no pun intended.
