k Genetically engineered tomatoes. Overripe tomatoes left compared to genetically engineered or modified GM tomatoes right. By altering the DNA deoxyribonucleic acid in the genes of the tomato, different properties can be introduced to the plant. These are Flavr Savr tomatoes, the first GM food to be sold in 1994. The genetic engineering of this variety of tomato, allows it to avoid spoilage during storage transportation for much longer periods than normal tomatoes. Editorial Stock Photo - Afloimages
