It seems to me that the "research" in this article lept to the devastating effects of GM crops without addressing fully the obvious component of the glyphosate herbicides that are incorporated in the crops. In short, acknowledging that the modification of crops was to accommodate the herbicides, it is very likely that the GM crops themselves are inherently non-toxic.
I come away from this article with the impression that evil GM crops are inherently disease inducing, not that the GM crops are poisonous because of the induced component of glyphosate herbicide. The low information voter, and liberals, will scan this article to reinforce the growing misconception that GM equals bad.
What may be the biggest irony of this development in GM agriculture and public perception is that this has all come about because of the Greenies rabid hatred of effective, cheap pesticides, e.g. DDT, and herbicides.
This has become a vicious cycle of big agriculture trying to stay one step ahead of the next round of prohibited substances and techniques, and the green, vegan, hippy environmentalist trying to shut down all industry and return the world to a peasant based rural setting where the life expectancy of the noble's serfs is 35 years.

No, not quite. The left doesn’t really hate DDT, or Roundup, or GMO crops. Those are just targets of convenience on the way to their real goal, which is population control. Anything that helps produce more food per acre will be targeted by them eventually.
