Genetic modifications have been replaced.
Growing genetically modified fruits and vegetables that have raised concerns for consumers in recent years may seem to be a thing of the past. It is no secret that genetically modified fruits and vegetables may not have a smell at all, and the taste of such fruits lags far behind the newly plucked ordinary unmodified fruits.
Scientists at the University of Florida have seriously thought about how to preserve the taste and aroma of fruits using the example of a tomato without the participation of genetic modifications. It turns out with the help of ordinary selection it is possible to grow tomatoes that retain their taste even after long transportation and after "freezing" in the refrigerator. You just need to look for and grow varieties of tomatoes that are resistant to "freezing".
Today, breeding work is carried out mainly for the cultivation of varieties of fruits and vegetables that are resistant to diseases. But now they want to put the selection on guard of the taste and smell of vegetables and fruits. This requires several years of selection work to find varieties of tomatoes, the genes of which will withstand "freezing" and retain their original taste without the participation of genetic engineering.
Scientists plan to carry out similar developments without GMO on other fruits and vegetables, suggesting to find the same resistant varieties.
