Syngenta has been marketing Bt sweet corn for several years. Monsanto
licensed the technology to them. What Monsanto is releasing is more
genetically engineered. If I understand correctly, it is Bt sweet corn with
a gene for Round-up resistance. It may also have a gene for resistance to
corn rootworm beetle. So it is "triple-stacked" with 3 engineered genes.
