herbicide tolerance
How much acreage will I need to plant to have a cost effective crop?
The first genetically modified crop is tomamto(flavrsavr).
Herbicide tolerance
Using transgenic organisms as food sources is not a common use. Benefits of transgenic organisms include producing pharmaceuticals, understanding gene function, and improving crop resistance to pests and diseases.

Georgia's state crop is peanuts. They were selected as the state crop in 1995. Georgia accounts for 49 percent of the nations peanut crop acreage and production.
The United States has the highest crop land area in the world.
According to USDA data on both acreage and total value of production:CornSoybeansWheat
Practical applications are: bacteria: they are easy to grow animal: study genes and improve the food supply plant: They are an important part of our food supply because they produce a natural insecticide so they don't have to be sprayed.

Transgenic plants are plants in which DNA from another species has been introduced into the plant's genome.
Yes. Most are herbicide resistant (soybean, canola) or produce insecticidal proteins (BT corn, cotton).
