Mo Yun, a Chinese woman was charged with stealing, she is married to the founder and chairman of a Chinese conglomerate that runs a corn seed subsidiary . She tried to steal patented U.S. seed technology as part of a plot to smuggle types of specialized corn from farm fields in the U.S. Midwest for use in China. Her brother   Mo Hailong, is also involved and arrested. to my surprise, others involved in the conspiracy include employees at U.S. seed companies who provided locations where experiments with the genetically altered seeds took place; or they provided gene sequencing information for the bio-engineered seeds, according to documents filed in U.S. District Court in the Southern District of Iowa. I am surprise that they were penetrated that easily.
