There's a lot more that still needs to be done...simply saying "no" will not futher the the cause of science.
More study and open minds are needed to ensure that good products are not thrown into the dust heap, based not on scientific studies but on subjective knee-jerk reactions.

The journal Science reported development of resistance to Bt cotton(pink bollworm)in Gujarat in March 2010.The Bt corn contaminating the streams in Indiana was reported in Sept. 2010. These reports are after the appearance of superweeds. I do think that Monsanto is the culprit and people should NOT TRUST MONSANTO at all.

A rogue wheat survived 2001 trial in US and is problem now.

Genetically modified wheat discovered by farmer after strongest of weedicide failed to eliminate it.
Most of the world has banned wheat imports from US after this discovery and are working to create a test kit to check for further contamination.
SO THE ABOVE ARTICLES HAS MANY LIES.

MONSANTO CONDUCTED THIS TRIAL IN ORGEON US 1998 TO 2005. THIS GMO VARIETY WAS NOT APPROVED BY US AUTHORITIES. CHINA, JAPAN AND ENTIRE EUROPE HAS BANNED IMPORTS NOW OF AMERICAN WHEAT.
HOPE THIS IS LESSON THAT INDIA CAN TAKE. INDIAN JUDICIARY HAS TO RELY ON EXPERTS, IT MUST TAKE EXPERT OPINION BUT NOT BLINDLY,

DATA FUDGED BY EXPERTS HAS LED TO DISASTROUS PESTICIDES CONTAMINATING OUR GROUND WATER. THOSE EXPERTS AND THOSE JUDGES ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR DEATHS, CANCERS AND OTHER MALAISE OF PESTICIDES BUT THEY ALL GOT AWAY SCOTT-FREE.
