Genetically Engineered Plants

Thorough history, Man has sought out to produce the best crops possible. Previously, genetic traits could only be passed between plants and animals that could be crossbred. Now, however, new techniques permit scientists to remove individual genes from one organism and transplant them into another (Dalgish). This process allows scientists to produce "super plants" with improved traits and characteristics. Genetically modified plants will revolutionize the world. Many plant improvements have already been created in agricultural …

…technology, and one of the fastest growing and most beneficial is genetic engineering. Everyone's lives will, in the future, be surrounded by biotechnology, and our nations will depend on it. The industry must cooperate with growing demands for biotechnology, and accept the benefits it can provide. With the help of genetic modifications, our world can be rid of world hunger, clean up the soil and water, and create a better living environment for future generations.
