The fish, a North Atlantic salmon developed by AquaBounty Technologies Inc. would be the country's first genetically engineered food animal.

这种由aquabounth技术公司开发的北大西洋三文鱼将可能成为美国第一种作为食品的基因工程动物。

The number of countries growing GM crops has increased in recent years. The benefits and dangers of genetically engineered food are the subject of intense debate.

近年来，随着种植转基因农作物的国家增多，转基因食品的利与弊陷入了激烈的争论之中。

Because organically grown food cannot be genetically modified in any way, choosing organic is the only way to be sure that foods that have been genetically engineered stay out of your diet.

因为有机食品不能以任何方式进行基因改造，选择有机食品是唯一能确保基因改造食品远离你的饮食的方法。

In one recent experiment, scientists used genetically engineered mice that were missing sugar receptors and therefore unable to detect sweetness in food.

最近科学家使用基因改造的小鼠进行了一项研究，这些小鼠对糖的味觉缺失，无法感受到食物中的甜味。

But if a genetically engineered plant contains a pharmaceutical or other new compound that must be kept out of the food supply, the answers could be very different.

但是如果一种转基因植物包含一种药物成分或其他必须从食品供给中除去的新成分，答案会很不同。
