about the
adverse immune system effects of gmo potatoes on the gut of rats in his lab
studies.

Is Your Rice Contaminated With Human Genes?
 
The first GM food crop containing human genes will likely be approved for
commercial production shortly. It is a strain of rice that produces some of
the human proteins found in *breast milk* and saliva, which manufacturer
Ventria Biosciences believes could be used to treat children with diarrhea. 
Ventria has already been given preliminary approval to grow the rice on more
than 3,000 acres in Kansas.
Until now, pharmaceutical plants with human-origin genes, which present
possible health risks if they become mixed with regular food crops, have
been restricted to small test plots.
Many are particularly worried about its use in light of the recent discovery
of unapproved genetically engineered traits in the supposedly conventional
rice Clearfield CL131. The U.S. Department of Agriculture has told farmers
to avoid planting this common variety of rice.

Planting generally begins in mid to late March, and some farmers may have to
plow under just-planted fields. Clearfield CL131 accounts for more than 16
percent of the United States' long-grain rice.
