There is work on a Terminator Gene -- in soybeans I have never read any work on it in corn as saving hybred corn has never been great.

The USDA was funding the Terminator Gene however one of the partners in the reasearch--- a southern university pulled out of it. The USDA (why I dont know) feels that the gene would be benificial..

I only see it as a problem--- you have 1 bad year of seed production and your in trouble in the future. the only BENIFIT would be to Monsanto's packet book.
