Australia's Office of the Gene Technology Regulator (OGTR) has announced changes to the country's Gene Technology Regulations that will allow a raft of new GM animals, plants, and microbes to enter the environment and food chain with no safety assessment and potentially no labelling. These include ***super-muscled pigs***, non-browning mushrooms, and wheat with powdery mildew resistance. The OGTR's attempt at deregulation comes as studies show that these new GM techniques are not as safe as claimed.

Super-Muskel-Schweine
Chinesische und südkoreanische Forscher haben Supermuskelschweine kreiert, Schweine die sehr schnell sehr viel Muskelfleisch ansetzen, um eine «höhere Ausbeute an Fleisch pro Tier» und mehr «mageres Fleisch» zu erhalten.

Geforscht wird beispielsweise bereits am Super-Muskel-Schwein, an Rindern ohne Hörnern oder an der Ausrottung der Tigermücken

New methods of genetic engineering, such as the gene scissors CRISPR/Cas, are being used to produce animals with enhanced muscle growth. These are so-called “super-muscly pigs”. Various experiments have been carried out with pigs, cattle, sheep and goats to “knock-out” the myostatin (MSTN) gene which controls muscle growth. If MSTN is disrupted, there is an abnormal proliferation of muscle cells. These experiments have been successful in some animals; and in some cases patents have been filed on the resulting pigs and cattle.
