2,4-D RoundUp
6
Gene flow
7
Genetic pollution The bacterial transgenes can spread from transgenic crops to soil bacteria

Human volunteers fed engineered soybeans showed that engineered DNA resist digestion and is detectable in the intestine. There is lateral gene transfer to gut bacteria. Genetic pollution
10
In 1996 the toxicologists of the FDA predicted that engineered foods would contain rogue proteins that could be toxic, or cause allergies, nutritional deficiencies, and other diseases. Biotechnology 2004
