08:13GMT 27Apr2009-Genus (LSE: GNS.L - news) falls over pork concerns
-------------------------------------------------
Shares in animal genetics company Genus fall as much as 6 percent as the swine flu outbreak raises concerns over the price of pork and worries over restrictions on pig transportation.
'Short term there could be some impact on pig prices and there could be some regional disruption, and that can get amplified in the Genus share price,' says an analyst, adding that the stock has rallied recently and may have been at risk of a fall back anyway.
