Default Insects thrive on GM 'pest-killing' crops


rather makes a mess of the claims that GM crops were a threat to all those
butterflies doesn't it


Certainly not. It seems that Bt protein acts on different species in
different ways. So, for some insect larvae it will act as extra food
and for others it will be a poison...
