The American biotechnology firm, Monsanto, has applied for a patent
for pig breeding in 160 countries. The patent is for specific parts
of the more... genetic material of pigs which Monsanto's genetic   more...researchers
have decoded. If this patent is granted, pig breeding would be
possible with the approval of the company.

Farmers and breeders are naturally alarmed because these genes have
long existed in the great majority of their pigs. Using DNA tests
they can prove that there is no new invention in the patent
applications but that, instead, granting this patent would be to
allow a part of nature to fall into the hands of a single company.

Monsanto's influence on the patent offices is huge. If the patent
is approved, money will have to be paid to Monsanto for every pig
in the world carrying this genetic marker. This has long been the
case for certain feedstuffs, such as genetically modified maize.
Many farmers in the US have already become dependent on the company.
It is not merely a question of money, however, but also a question
of the risk posed to consumers. In America, as in Europe, cases of
infertility in animals fed with genetically modified maize are
becoming increasingly common. No-one yet knows what effects such
products are having on humans.  less

Leaf sectioning
The film introduces the project involving goats that have been implanted with a gene to make them produce spider silk proteins in their milk. Spider silk is amongst the strongest and most flexible material known. It is used for the production of everything from bullet-proof jackets to parachutes and airbags.

Featherless chicken
Then, of course, there are the pigs that have been engineered to help solve the global pollution crisis…

Transgenic cassava
Like it or not, one thing this series shows is that genetic modification experiments are well under way. Perhaps it's time drop the knee-jerk reaction and engage in a little more serious debate about what is and what isn't acceptable in terms of animal and environmental welfare.  less

I am totally against Genetic modification of any kind.. There is a lot of proof showing how Gm crops are causing all kinds of problems. i post this for people to see what is going on. Thanks for commenting.

The film also looks at a product called MySkin – a new tissue engineering technique that takes a small sample of human skin and encourages the cells within it to multiply and produce new skin. The technique is already being used to treat people who have suffered serious burns, but, as co-presenters Giles and Olivia discover, it could have a future use in growing whole body parts – noses, ears and even vital organs like livers and bladders.

Giles, however, decides to stick with his own nose.  less
