planting the genetically modified trees
Both the author and the lecturer discuss whether genetic modification improve characteristics of trees or not. The passage claims that planting the genetically modified trees provides some benefit for farmers and trees themselves. The professor, on the other hand, completely reject whatever mentioned in the reading through citing three reasons.
First, both the author and the professor talk about chance of survival. According to the passage, the genetically modified trees are resistance to the ring-spot problem. Thus, they are stronger than natural trees. The lecturer, nevertheless, rejects the author’s view and illustrates the idea that these trees resist in a particular situation and if climate and the type of pests, it is likely that all the trees be wipe out.
Second of all, both the reading and the lecture discuss the economic aspect of planting the genetically modified trees. The author argues that these modified trees have some economic benefits such as growing faster and providing more returns that lead to a huge investment for the farmers. However, the professor refutes this, saying that planting the genetically modified trees have several hidden costs and by law, the farmers have to pay the company for seeds every time they plant.
Eventually, the passage and the lecture address the subject of exploitation. The passage goes on to mention that planting the genetically modified trees satisfies the demand for wood, so it prevents damaging the local wild trees. In contrast, the professor points out that these trees are destructive to natural trees because they grow fast among natural trees and use a great deal of resources such as water, light and so on, Therefore, they crowd out the natural trees.
All in all, the author maintains that planting the genetically modifying trees is a positive change, while the professor not only completely cast doubt on it, but he also demonstrates that they impose some costs and problems to the nature and farmers.
