Coming soon to your supermarket: GM salmonPosted Jan 11th 2006 3:36PM by James YuFiled under: Science, Farming, Non-GMO, FishThe FDA is getting ready to approve a new genetically modified salmon which grows twice as fast as normal
farm-raised salmon. The trick is altering a gene that controls the production of growth hormones. The company behind
the technology is Aqua Bounty, and they say that the modification
of the growth hormone does not affect taste or raise any health concerns. What do you think? Are you ready for super
big GM salmon on your shelves?
