9) genetic engineering creates superviruses
It has been found that newer techniques, like DNA shuffling, are allowing geneticists to create, in a matter of minutes in the laboratory, millions of recombinant viruses that never been existed in billions of years of evolution.

10) transgenic DNA in food taken up by bacteria in the human gut
experimental evidence had shown that transgenic DNA from plants has been taken up by bacteria inthe soil and in the gut of human volunteers. Antibiotic-resistant marker genes can spread from transgenic food to pathogenic bacteria, making infections very difficult to treat.

11)transgenic DNA and cancer
Transgenic DNA is known to survive digestion in the gut and to jump into the genome of mammalian cells, raising the possibility for triggering cancer.

12) CaMV 35S promoter increases horizontal gene transfer
Transgenic constructs with the CaMV 35S promoter might be especially unstable and prone to horizontal gene transfer and recombination. this results with attendant hazards like, gene mutations due to random insertion, cancer, reactivation of dormant viruses and new viruses generation. This promoter is present in most GM crops being grown commercially today.

13) a history of misrepresentation and suppression of scientific evidence
there has been a history of misinterpretation and suppression of scientific evidence like for example, the horizontal gene transfer. Investigations like whether CaMV 35S promoter is responsible for the "growth factor-like" effects observed in young rats fed GM potatoes were not followed up.
