AND IN New Zealand maize seed bought from Australia but thought to have originated in North America had been planted to express desirable hybrid attributes. At planting this maize seed was deemed GM-free. But the hybid seed was found to be GM after tests.

Where or how the hybrid contamination occurred is also under investigation.
