WASHINGTON, DC, May 10, 2013- Genetically modified (GM) crops have been part of the U.S. food supply for several years. However, only one type of GM fruit, the Hawaiian papaya (Rainbow and SunUp), has been available to U.S. consumers. This may change by the end of 2013.
If approved, two varieties of apple, Arctic® Granny Smith and Arctic® Golden Delicious, will be the second GM fruits allowed into the U.S. food supply.
