1. Genetically modified cotton

Cotton is full of treasures. As an important oil crop, cotton seed oil can be eaten. It is a commonly grown crop in the world. China is the world's largest cotton plant. The country with the largest output has been genetically modifying cotton to combat the bollworm for 15 years. Bt cotton (Bacillus thuringiensis gene-transformed insect-resistant cotton) can reduce the use of pesticides and increase overall yield.

2. Genetically modified tomatoes

Nowadays, more and more genetically modified tomatoes have been successfully developed in the world and are gradually moving towards industrialization. Currently, there are no genetically modified tomatoes on the market in North America and Europe. It is also in the safety testing stage in the country. Since 1994, tomatoes have been genetically modified to inactivate the gene. This gene causes the plant to be unable to produce polygalacturonase, which is the cause of premature tomato rot. Frevosavo tomatoes grow on the vine and keep for a long time.

3. Genetically modified papaya

Papaya is often called papaya. Ringspot virus has been a big problem threatening the papaya industry for many years. It was not until the 1980s that the virus was added to papaya. The capsid protein thus produces an immune effect. It wasn't until 1999 that the first commercial papaya crops were grown in Hawaii. Currently, both the United States and Canada have approved genetically modified papayas, but the European Union has not yet approved it.

4. Genetically modified rice

Like most genetically modified foods, rice is constantly being experimented with to make it more resistant to pests. Rice is a major staple food in the world, so ensuring world rice production is of great significance.

my country is a world leader in research on genetically modified rice, but it has not yet widely promoted genetically modified rice because it has not been studied clearly whether there are any side effects. If the research is successful, farmers may not need to spray any pesticides on their crops in the future.

5. Genetically modified potatoes

The potato industry as a starch raw material is developing rapidly. In addition to being eaten directly, it can also be used to make feed, make wine, etc. Scientists develop genetically modified potatoes specifically for making starch. About 10% of potatoes can be genetically modified. So you are likely to eat genetically modified potato processed products in the future.
