    Bayer sued for allegedly monopolizing the US genetically modified corn seed market

    当地时间5月27日,据报道,拜耳公司正面临一起在美国密苏里州东区联邦地区法院提起的拟议集体诉讼,该诉讼指控其在转基因玉米种子市场上存在反竞争行为。该诉讼称,拜耳在2022年专利到期后,阻止独立种子公司使用其转基因种质材料开发与NK603性状相关的竞争性仿制产品。报道称,美国几乎所有的转基因杂交玉米种子都携带拜耳的NK603性状,约92%的玉米种植面积使用耐除草剂种子,这凸显了拜耳在市场上的巨大影响力。拜耳表示这些指控毫无根据,并将通过法律途径予以回应。(界面)
