cowpea

Researchers are attempting to replicate the results in cowpea, as it is a staple food crop in sub-saharan Africa.

Researchers have discovered that the cowpea mosaic virus (from black-eyed peas) can activate the human immune system to attack cancer cells, without infecting human tissue.

> The paper illustrates the point by undertaking two different RCTs on cowpea seeds in Tanzania.

The same thing will happen with round up ready and Cowpea - we didn't just get round up ready crops, we also set in motion the mechanism that will create round up ready weeds.

(Different situation in the third world, I think GMOs can be genuinely helpful there, if risks can be minimized.) But the one I actually had in mind is when crops are modified to express pesticides using genes that originate from bacteria (looks like Cowpea is an example [0]).

The variation is that the filling for the dosa is a dry (actually just a little wet, with the spice mixture), boiled and spiced cowpea (lobia) curry, instead of the potato curry (which is what is called the "masala" in the original).

Cowpea, tomato, tobacco, rice, canola, and green pea were all able to utilize carbon from acetate when cultivated in the dark.

This system supposedly enables growing "algae, yeast, mushroom-producing fungus, lettuce, rice, cowpea, green pea, canola, tomato, pepper, tobacco" in the dark with acetate.
