Jan 21 Monsanto Co said it filed a lawsuit on Thursday seeking to prevent glyphosate, the main ingredient in its weed killer Roundup, from being added to California's list of known carcinogens, stepping up its defense of the widely used herbicide. The seed and agrochemicals company filed the suit against the state's Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment and the agency's acting director Lauren Zeise in California's Superior Court in Fresno county, according to the court filing seen by Reuters.
