In other words, when you make crops more herbicide resistant, gene transfer will eventually make the weeds more herbicide resistant.

This is a relatively recent finding that plants share genetic information via gene transfer.

In addition to the above, a study has shown that gene transfer can take place within humans who ingest GMO foods. That's because we have beneficial bacteria in our intestines that will share genetic information with the GMO food. (And I would suggest that it may go one step further with the beneficial bacteria sharing genetic information with cells in our own body.)
Very interesting. Thanks for sharing.........
