'Frankenfish' GM salmon eggs get production go-ahead

'Frankenfish' GM salmon eggs get production go-ahead | Mail Online: "The commercial production of eggs for fast growing GM salmon has been given approval in a crucial step to bringing ‘Frankenfish’ to the world’s kitchens.



The salmon have been genetically modified to include genes from the eel-like Ocean pout and Chinook salmon, which means they grow more quickly than their wild or farmed equivalent. The US authorities are in the final stages of an approval process to allow the first genetically modified animals for human consumption."
