"But tension escalated this spring when Monsanto filed a federal lawsuit accusing DuPont of patent infringement. The lawsuit says DuPont's plan to combine its own herbicide tolerance trait in a soybean seed along with Monsanto's Roundup Ready gene violates terms of a 2004 license agreement."

Thanks Mickelle. I say give 'em some boxing gloves and hope neither one of them comes out of the ring alive. It would be beneficial if these guys would exhaust their legal budgets battling each other. Then maybe they would leave the small guys alone.
