• The defenses of the potato plant have fought off the spores, rendering them harmless • “crops remain controversial in Europe, and only two are approved for planting in the

EU.” • How genetically modified crops could help protect the world’s food supply • defenses against plant diseases, which annually destroy some 15 percent of the

world’s agricultural harvest. • Climate change is likely to make the problem far worse • Creating a potato variety through conventional breeding, for example, takes at least

15 years; producing a genetically modified one takes less than six months. • But the lengthy testing and regulatory processes for genetically modified crops, and

the danger that consumers will reject them, mean that only “a handful of large companies” can afford the expense and risk of developing them, he says.

• But recent genomic breakthroughs are encouraging. Scientists have sequenced the genomes of crops such as rice, potatoes, bananas, and wheat. At the same time, advances in molecular biology mean that genes can be deleted, modified, and inserted with far greater precision. I
