Allergen-free GM plants may boost food safety: experts

Advances in the field of genetic engineering may produce plants with little or no allergens, but there are limits to this approach, say Australian researchers.

Genetic modification of plants and crops has long been touted as a means of producing hypoallergenic foods, but real progress in this area is limited by overcoming the "essential requirement for some of the major allergenic proteins for normal plant function," wrote Mohan Singh and Prem Bhalla from the University of Melbourne.
