The scientists used this to predict what might happen if fish with modified traits were unleashed in nature. Genetically modified salmon contain the growth hormone gene from one fish, combined ...

Fish genetically modified to glow different colors have escaped farms in Brazil and could disrupt biodiversity in the country's Atlantic Forest region. A new study published in Studies on ...

A kind of salmon that's been genetically modified so that it grows faster may be on the way to a supermarket near you. The Food and Drug Administration approved the fish on Thursday — a decision ...

At Vitargent’s core is that same fish-embryo technology, only refined. The fish embryo, an embryo of a modified Zebra fish that Chen calls a “Transgenic” species, has been designed to glow ...

U.S. health officials are set to rule on whether a faster-growing, genetically engineered fish is safe to eat in a decision that could deliver the first altered animal food to consumers' dinner ...

“Atlantic salmon populations including our endangered Gulf of Maine fish are hanging on by a thread — they can’t afford additional threats posed by (genetically engineered) salmon.

They decided to inject the alligator gene into the part of the catfish genome that regulates a hormone the fish need to be able to spawn. This sterilized the genetically modified fish. To test the ...

To try to make a dent in this problem, Tepper and her colleagues genetically engineered zebra fish and fruit flies so that they convert methylmercury—the kind that “bioaccumulates,” binding ...

Without the hormone, fish are unable to spawn. Their testing showed the genetically altered fish seem more resistant to infection. They put two different types of disease-causing bacteria in water ...

Lisa Murkowski of Alaska. Following FDA approval, she inserted language into a spending bill that stymied the introduction or distribution of genetically modified fish until labeling guidelines ...

When they come across a tasty morsel, such as a fish or a crustacean ... It remains unclear whether the genetically modified zebrafish larvae could pass along the acquired genes to their offspring.
