The main thing that the Farmers should know about the transgenic plants is whether the crop will give good productivity.
<u>Explanation:</u>
- Farmers should consider many things before planting transgenic plants like crops will give him profit or not.
- He should know how much water does the plant will consume.
- Whether the plant is can resist insects and viruses and also to know about the type of pesticides it needed.
- He also should know the period of growth. Period of growing changes from naturally available crops and transgenically available crops.
- Some of the genetically modified crops will cause loss to the farmer. So the farmer should identify the profit giving crops.
The DNA is packaged... it starts by being wrapped around special protein molecules (histones). This forms a nucleosome.
The natural rate of extinction as assumed by science is about 5 species per year. Currently scientists estimate we are losing species at 1000-10000 times that rate, with multiple species disappearing every day. A note on this idea is that the average extinction rate gives an unrealistic depiction of nature when we consider the catastrophic extinction events that ended the dinosaurs and shaped the ice age.
