The article discusses the benefits of planting genetically modified trees and provides three reasons of support. However, the professor explains that there are serious problems and cost of implementing genetic modifications on trees. She refutes each of the author’s reasons.
First, the reading claims that genetically modified trees are hardier than nature trees, such as they are more likely to survive. The professor refutes this point by explaining that genetically modified trees may be resistant, but they can not ensure they could survive. She says that the nature tress that by nature are resistant to any climate changes or insects attacks, one species could be survive. On the other hand, the genetically modified trees are uniform, this means, if they expose to any environmental danger that are not designed to be be protected, all of them will die. Therefore, trees are genetically modified trees are not so completely survive against any new environmental or insect invasions.
Second, the article avers that genetically modified trees are economically beneficial because they grow faster than the nature once. Conversely, the professor disagrees this point by saying that there is hidden cost the author did not mention it. She explains that the cost of genetically modified trees seed are so expensive. Also, by law, if farmers collect seeds from these tress,they will have to pay to the companies, that owns these tress, in order to plants again.
Third, the reading posits that the use genetically modified trees can prevent overexploitation of wild trees; in other words these tress are satisfy the demand of fire wood and building timber and save endangered native trees. The professor refutes this point by saying that this use can be more dangerous to the native trees. She says that since this modified trees are more aggressive in growing, they will compete the native trees on their resources. For example, they will compete on sunlight, nutrients, and even the water. Therefore, modified trees will decline the populations of the natural tress.
