The multinomial model showed that there was a significant interaction between RH and isofemale lines (LR = 73.14; df = 10; P < 0.001, Table 2; see Supplemental information), and hence there are differences between the isolines in the percentages of flying, walking, and non-flying wasps.

(Roundup Ready means that the corn resists Monsanto's herbicide Roundup, so cornfields can be sprayed with Roundup, killing the weeds and leaving the corn alive.) In addition to the Roundup Ready corn that was sprayed by Roundup, as a control they used what's known as a "near isoline." A near isoline means corn that is genetically identical to the Roundup Ready corn, with the exception of the Roundup Ready gene.
Who should you believe when it comes to the safety of genetically engineered foods?
