Can you explain what reconstructing code in the DNA mean? Do you mean mimicking other DNA sequence? Filling in gaps with similiar animals.. ala the movie jurassic park?
The reason why I ask is because you cannot just "reconstruct code" as it is not nature's business. Nature doesn't work like that, there are base pair restrictions and quite sophisticated error correction and redundancy that is built in... you fill in gibberish or something too far off, the animal just won't live.
You do realise DNA is just part of a larger picture? especially for complex animals like cows.. where its gut flora also play a role?

Maybe it's just Monsanto I don't like because of their practices but it would be nice to have more long term unbiased studies out there. Also, I am completely for labeling so I can be the one choosing if I want to ingest gmos or not. I worry about the effect these genetically modified products have on our soils though. Monsantos seeds can only be used for one season and then you need to keep buying more, there's possible crop contamination for farmers fields that don't want gmo seeds, the weeds could become resistant and create super weeds possibly just like superbugs have occurred.
Here's a good little article
