GM Bt Corn Causes Infertility in Rats – New Egyptian Studies
histopathological examination was carried out on the rats fed the GM maize, and the results were compared with rats fed non-GM maize.

These studies are the latest in a long line of studies and in-field cases that suggest GM crops could be linked directly to infertility in rodents and farm animals.
