From CNN:
A team of researchers won a $10 million federal grant to provide the first complete sequence of the swine genome -- a genetic map they say could help farmers produce better hogs, give consumers tastier pork and ultimately benefit human health.
Three things:
- Yum
- This ought to go over well with terrorists
- Wasting our money to create better tasting pork? Good idea!
