im not sure but i think one of them is that there may be some long term side effects not yet discovered.
Genetically modified crops are grown world wide. Genetic modification of plants has been man assisted since Luther Burbank developed 800 strains ad varieties of plants.
By use of genetic engineering techniques, an organism may be able to be genetically modified. Various organisms ranging from bacteria to food products have been genetically modified in the society.
The process of plants producing energy for growth
Because the long term affects of eating genetically engineered plants are unknown.
yes.
One of the disadvantages of the genetically modified foods is that it allows animal products in plants which could raise issues for those with dietary restrictions like the vegans. The advantage of the genetically modified foods is that they can increase the crop yield in a very small acreage.
GMO stands for a Genetically Modified Organism.
Genetically modified crops are crops with plants that have been genetically altered in order to increase the yield of the crop. For example, the plant may have been genetically altered to become bigger or more resistant to bugs.
No movement to try to prevent the development of genetically modified food technology is known. There are; however, people who choose not to eat food that is known to be genetically modified, due to questions about the health and environmental effects of genetically modifying plants used for food.
organic Cotton is grown without using pesticides from plants which are not genetically modified
Edible vaccines are vaccines produced in plants genetically modified through bioengineering.

[1] Genetically modified organisms can affect plant diversity. As with non-genetically modified plants, their seeds are easily spread by wild life and wind. Consequently, they contaminate non-genetically modified food products that are grown within the reach of air and critters. For their genetics tend to dominate over the genetics of non-genetically modified plants. [2] They also can affect individual plant responses. For the individual plant's genetics have been altered. And researchers don't yet have the complete map to the consequences, or plant responses to these consequences. It's a work in progress. And researchers as much as their plant subjects are making up the rules as they go along.
We have genetically modified foods for centuries by selective cross breeding plants. With out this and other modern methods of farming perhaps a billion people now existing on a substance diet would starve to death.
Quite a few plants have been so modified, including corn, cotton, soybeans, and canola.
Transgenic plants are plants in which DNA from another species has been introduced into the plant's genome.
