Exclusive: U.S. poised to upgrade Cuba in annual human trafficking report -sources

Genetically modified diamondback moth offers pest control hope
Scientists in Britain say they have developed a way of genetically modifying and controlling an invasive species of moth that causes serious pest damage to cabbages, kale, canola and other similar crops worldwide. In what they said could be a pesticide-free and environmentally-friendly way to control insect pests, the scientists, from the Oxford University spinout company Oxitec, developed diamondback moths with a “self-limiting gene” which dramatically reduced populations in greenhouse trials. “This research is opening new doors for the future of farming with pest control methods that are non-toxic and pesticide-free,” said Neil Morrison, an Oxitec research scientist who led the study.
