Genetically modified tomatoes
Genetically modified tomatoes. Conceptual image representing genetically modified (GM) tomatoes. Genetic modification involves adding or deleting sections of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) to create inherited changes in an organism. Several kinds of GM tomatoes with improved shelf-life have been developed and commercially marketed

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the fascinating world of genetically modified tomatoes. The image, created by Science Photo Library, serves as a conceptual representation of these scientifically engineered fruits. Genetic modification involves manipulating the DNA of an organism, in this case, tomatoes, to introduce inherited changes that enhance their characteristics. In this visually striking composition, we witness a cluster of vibrant red tomatoes labeled with precision and care. Each tomato represents the result of adding or deleting specific sections of its DNA through advanced biotechnology techniques. These modifications have led to remarkable improvements in shelf-life and other desirable traits. The photograph not only highlights the intricate process behind genetic modification but also raises important questions about our food system and bioengineering advancements. It reminds us that science plays a pivotal role in shaping our crops and ultimately influences what ends up on our plates. While it is crucial to note that this image does not mention any commercial use or company affiliation, it sparks curiosity about how genetically modified foods can potentially revolutionize agriculture and address global food security challenges. Through this thought-provoking visual narrative captured by Science Photo Library's lens, we are encouraged to delve deeper into the realm of genetics and explore the potential benefits and ethical considerations surrounding genetically modified organisms like these intriguing GM tomatoes.
