New proof of horizontal gene transfer

Research in the UK demonstrates spread of genetically engineered genes via horizontal gene transfer

There is no need for the GM (genetically modified) genes to "escape," when genetically modified organisms (GMOs) have been released in great abundance and with gay abandon into the environment over the past 17 years. At issue is how fast and how widely the GM genes can spread, and what dire consequences could arise."
