if you have passed a high school biology class, you would know that "dominant" is normal and not harmful. Whatever gene is dominant will be expressed more often that the recessive gene. That doesn't mean the recessive gene is wiped out.

And how is it a bad thing that GM lines are mixed with non-GM? Whenever you cross-breed, more variations are created, and biodiversity is increased.
