FRANCE-AGRICULTURE-GENETICS-FOOD-ANIMALS-RESEARCH-INRA

Benoit Malpaux, president of the INRA (French National Institute for Agricultural Research) research center of Jouy-en-Josas, looks on as he holds a press conference at the center on June 23, 2015, after a genetically modified animal from a medical research study ended up at a slaughterhouse. The INRA will go to court to shed light on the affair, after a lamb genetically modified with a jellyfish protein was sold to an individual and ended up in the food chain. "Although the ovine does not present any risk to man or the environment, the Institute has informed the prosecutor's office of Meaux of a breach in the Environmental Code," the INRA said.
