Rules:

You answer my question and you can play the game.

Any other response you lose. You are a loser.

After you answer I will respond to your answer and add a followup question.

You answer the followup question and I will respond.

Then you can ask a question. The same pattern will apply.

We will continue until you lose.

QUESTION: What studies have been done to determine the epigenetic effects, in terms of gene expression, caused by the consumption of any GMO food?

THIS IS ON EDIT

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE

TAKE A LOOK AT THIS

I have found a gold mine. Do you want easy acess to this type of information?

Diurnal and seasonal variation in the carbon isotope composition of leaf dark respired CO(2) in velvet mesquite (Prosopis velutina).
Publication: Plant, cell & environment
Publication Date: 2009
Study Author(s): Sun, Wei;Resco, Víctor;Williams, David G;
Institution: Department of Renewable Resources, University of Wyoming, Laramie, WY 82071, USA. [e-mail]
We evaluated diurnal and seasonal patterns of carbon isotope composition of leaf dark-respired CO(2) (delta(13)C(l)) in the C(3) perennial shrub velvet mesquite (Prosopis velutina) across flood plain and upland savanna ecosystems in the south-western USA. delta(13)C(l) of darkened leaves increased to maximum values late during daytime periods and declined gradually over night-time periods to minimum values at pre-dawn.

Flight take off performance of Colorado potato beetle in relation to potato phenology.
Publication: Journal of economic entomology
Publication Date: 2008
Study Author(s): Mbungu, Nsitu T;Boiteau, Gilles;
Institution: Department of Natural Resource Sciences, Macdonald Campus of McGill University, 21,111 Lakeshore Blvd., Sainte-Anne-de-Bellevue, QC, H9X 3V9, Canada
The flight take-off frequency of adult Colorado potato beetles, Leptinotarsa decemlineata (Say), from potato plants, Solanum tuberosum L. 'Red Pontiac' at the bloom stage of development was 2.2-2.5-fold that of Colorado potato beetle from plants at the vegetative stage. Tests were conducted in a flight chamber over a period of 3 h. Prefeeding Colorado potato beetles for 48 h on potato plants at the bloom or at the vegetative stage before placing them into the flight chamber resulted in the same significantly higher flight take-off frequency from potato plants at the bloom stage than from plants at the vegetative stage

Enzymatic hydrolysis of fructans in the tequila production process.
Publication: Journal of agricultural and food chemistry
Publication Date: 2009
Study Author(s): Avila-Fernández, Angela;Rendón-Poujol, Xóchitl;Olvera, Clarita;González, Fernando;Capella, Santiago;Peña-Alvarez, Araceli;López-Munguía, Agustín;
Institution: Instituto de Biotecnología, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, Cuernavaca, Morelos, Mexico.
In contrast to the hydrolysis of reserve carbohydrates in most plant-derived alcoholic beverage processes carried out with enzymes, Agave fructans in tequila production have traditionally been transformed to fermentable sugars through acid thermal hydrolysis. Experiments at the bench scale demonstrated that the extraction and hydrolysis of agave fructans can be carried out continuously using commercial inulinases in a countercurrent extraction process with shredded agave fibers

Influence of cabbage processing methods and prebiotic manipulation of colonic microflora on glucosinolate breakdown in man.
Publication: The British journal of nutrition
Publication Date: 2007
Study Author(s): Fuller, Zoë;Louis, Petra;Mihajlovski, Agnès;Rungapamestry, Vanessa;Ratcliffe, Brian;Duncan, Alan J;
Institution: Macaulay Institute, Aberdeen, UK. [e-mail]
Glucosinolate consumption from Brassica Vegetables has been implicated in reduction of cancer risk. The Isothiocyanate breakdown products of Glucosinolates appear to be particularly important as chemoprotective agents. Before consumption, brassica vegetables are generally cooked, causing the plant enzyme, myrosinase, to be denatured, influencing the profile of glucosinolate breakdown products produced

Effects of application strategies of fumigant and nonfumigant nematicides on cantaloupe grown in deep sand soils in Florida.
Publication: Journal of nematology
Publication Date: 2005
Study Author(s): Hamill, J E;Dickson, D W;
A 2-year study was conducted in which three treatment tactics of Oxamyl (at planting application, application every 2 weeks, and rescue applications, as determined by crop symptoms) were compared to fumigant treatments with methyl bromide, 1,3-dichloropropene (1,3-D), and 1,3-D plus chloropicrin for management of Meloidogyne spp. In 2002, treatments that included 1,3-D produced higher yields as determined both by number and weight of marketable fruit

Specific detection of banana residue in processed foods using polymerase chain reaction.
Publication: Journal of agricultural and food chemistry
Publication Date: 2010
Study Author(s): Sakai, Yumiko;Ishihata, Kimie;Nakano, Shigeru;Yamada, Toshihiro;Yano, Takeo;Uchida, Kouji;Nakao, Yoshiki;Urisu, Atsuo;Adachi, Reiko;Teshima, Reiko;Akiyama, Hiroshi;
Institution: Nagahama Branch, Oriental Yeast Co., Ltd., Nagahama, Shiga, Japan.
Specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR) methods were developed for the detection of banana residue in processed foods. For high banana specificity, the primer set BAN-F/BAN-R was designed on the basis of the large subunit of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase (rbcL) genes of chloroplasts and used to obtain amplified products specific to banana by both conventional and real-time PCR.

HOW DID I FIND THIS? I must thank Sid. He said this site sucks.
While it might be true that the site sucks it does have a lot of good info.
In honor of Sid we should all go take a look.
