Ye Chen is a world-renowned scientist. Such technical issues are well thought out and insightful. Not only does the father of hybrid rice want to know, but who does not want?
Nothing but widened his eyes and raised his ears.
"First of all, plants. The application of transgenic technology in plants is of great value. If endangered plants are supported by transgenic technology to improve their viability, they may be preserved. This is very important to save such endangered species Meaning. "Ye Chen explained.
The father of hybrid rice nodded their heads and agreed with it.
In modern society, science and technology have made tremendous progress, and human society has experienced unprecedented prosperity. However, the damage to the environment is also terrifying. Without saying anything else, say our country. Before the reform and opening up, our country had a beautiful environment, green mountains and clear waters, and fresh air.
How many years have passed? The damage is distressing, and the haze is already distressing.
The environment is badly damaged, and the survival of plants becomes a problem. Some plants are already at risk of extinction. If these endangered plants are supported by genetically modified technology and their viability is greatly improved, they can be preserved.
This is definitely one of the most valuable uses of genetically modified technology.
"Of course, in the application of genetically modified technology to crops, I support research, and I am particularly careful about the promotion of genetically modified crops." Ye Chen said again.
Especially cautious?
As a world-renowned scientist, Ye Chen used rigorous words. This time, he used the word "special" to emphasize his attitude. The father of hybrid rice looked dignified. Ye Chen emphasized so much that he must have amazing insights.
"We all know that genes have evolved. It took tens of millions of years for humans to evolve from forest ancient monkeys to modern humans. In these tens of millions of years, humans have had a lot of food and many have disappeared in the long river of history. However, it has been written for thousands of years in our history. Shennong tasted Baicao and pioneered medicine to benefit us immensely. Shennong taught the people to make the ancestors enter the agricultural era. These crops, accompanied by We are thousands of years. This is the result of thousands of years of testing, it is very reliable, and we can rest assured. "Ye Chen said again.
The father of hybrid rice nodded and agreed with this statement.
Since Shennong, our country has entered the farming society, which is a huge progress. Crops have been with us for thousands of years. How long can such a long historical test be reliable.
"Geotech has only appeared for decades, and this time is too short. The time for genetically modified crops is even shorter. Whether there are any problems with crop varieties obtained through transgenic technology, it remains to be tested. Maybe there is no problem, maybe there is a problem, this No one can tell now. "Ye Chen's brow twisted, his tone more and more cautious.
Transgenic technology only appeared in the 1970s, and it has been more than 40 years now. Although scientists have done a lot of work, they have conducted rigorous experiments. However, the genes themselves are evolving. What do two different genes combine to evolve into, and can you see the results for decades?
It has taken tens of millions of years for humans to evolve from ancient forest monkeys to modern humans, and genes are still evolving. In the future, what will humans evolve into, who knows?
Humans, who have evolved over tens of millions of years, cannot see an end. Who can guarantee that genetically modified crops that have only evolved for decades have no harm to humans?
"Of course, it is best to have no problems. In the future, if we find that genetically modified crops are very harmful to human beings, human beings have been poisoned by genetically modified crops. By then, the night of regret is also." Ye Chen's tone was slightly higher.
The emergence of GM technology is too short. Only decades later, it was deemed that GM crops were not harmful to humans, which was too hasty. Therefore, we must be cautious and cautious in the promotion of genetically modified crops.
"For example, the United States is promoting the use of genetically modified soybeans around the world and requires our country to purchase them in large quantities. In fact, Americans do n’t eat genetically modified soybeans themselves because Americans do n’t have the bottom of their minds. Americans also know that decades of evolution Time, it is impossible to know the future of genes. "Ye Chen gave an example.
Genetically modified soybeans are no stranger to anyone who knows the news a little.
The United States is known worldwide for genetically modified soybeans, and the United States sells them globally, but Americans do not eat them themselves.
Because genetically modified soybeans haven't been around for a long time, Americans have no idea.
Crops are related to the problem of eating. It's not just tens of millions of people, it's about billions of people; it's not just about one generation or two, it's about future generations.
If we now take the initiative to promote genetically modified crops, and after a few years, we find that genetically modified crops have problems, and it will not be harmful to one or two generations, but to future generations. It is possible that the entire ethnic group will have problems.
The consequences are terrible.
This is not rash, but there are practical examples.
Many genetically modified varieties contain bacterial genes extracted from Bacillus that produce a protein that is toxic to insects and pests. A butterfly larva eats pollen from a plant belonging to the genus Maleix that contains the bacillus gene, causing death or abnormal development.
This is just an experiment and there is such a terrible phenomenon.
If GM crops are promoted, humans eat them every day and they are doing experiments every day. After a few years, what will happen, who can make it clear?
"Xiaoye ’s worry is very reasonable. What makes people hate is that some merchants clearly use genetically modified crops, but use very small words to mark them in the most inconspicuous places. If you do n’t pay attention, you wo n’t find them. If it ’s not genetically modified, Crops, these black-hearted merchants will be marked in a conspicuous font at the most prominent position. "The father of hybrid rice is distressed.
There are many such unscrupulous merchants. Friends who have entered the supermarket must have found a lot.
"Compared to the old man, they are a fart." Ye Chen has also seen many such unscrupulous merchants, and hates it.
The rigorous scientific attitude of the food grown by the father of hybrid rice to eat by himself and make himself an experimental product is moving.
"Xiaoye, the other aspect you are worried about is the use of genetically modified technology in animals?" The father of hybrid rice has understood Ye Chen's concern.
"Yes. Animals, some are human food. The use of genetically modified technology requires the same care as crops. My biggest concern is that with the maturity of genetically modified technology, humans are moving closer to God. By that time, creation A lot of monsters emerged. "Ye Chen's brow tightened.
"What do you say?" The father of hybrid rice asked.
It can be seen that Ye Chen was really worried, and Chen Wang and they were also curious, and their eyes widened.
"If GM technology has made great progress and human beings can play a role in creating life, those ulterior motives, or lunatics, use it on humans, the consequences will be terrible." Ye Chen's tone turned higher.
The father of the hybrid rice was dignified.
"If a lunatic inserts another animal gene fragment in the human gene, what will happen?" Ye Chen's eyes flashed with savageness.
The father of the hybrid rice, his lips clenched, his face solemn.
"If a dog gene fragment is implanted in a human gene, will it produce a doghead? If it is implanted in a pig gene, will it produce a pighead? If it is implanted in a snake gene, will it produce beauty? What about Dusha? "Ye Chen came down with a few questions. The father of the hybrid rice was hard to read, and the atmosphere was heavy.
Now, we don't have such concerns. That's because genetically modified technology is not mature enough, and humans' role in creating life is not very big, just to make some repairs.
With the advancement of technology, human beings are playing a greater and greater role, and there must be people with ulterior motives, or lunatics, who will definitely perform experiments on humans.
Human cloning is banned all over the world, and lunatics are conducting human cloning experiments.
If we conduct experiments on humans, we will find monsters that are neither human nor ghosts. The consequences are terrible and will upend human ethics.
Is such a monster a human or a monster?
It ’s human, but it ’s not exactly human. It ’s not human, but it has human characteristics and human genes.
Human Lund morals have been severely challenged. Will the existing moral system collapse?
Just doing experiments, although hard to accept, is not too harmful to humans.
If ulterior motives create such monsters on a large scale, the consequences will be even worse.
A large number of monsters appeared on the earth, competing with humans for food, resources, challenging human ethics, and fighting humans.
Will such terrible consequences lead to human destruction?
No one can tell.
At any time, there is no shortage of lunatics and ulterior motives.
If human beings have made great achievements in transgenic technology, they can play more life-creating roles. Sooner or later, there will be lunatics and ulterior motives.
Don't say it turns into reality, it's just scary to think about it.
This is more harmful to humans than cloning people.
Cloning people will have a huge impact on human ethics. Anyway, this is still human, with human wisdom and knowledge. Monsters do not have such constraints. They can do whatever they want. It is possible for humans to become monster food.
"Xiaoye, you can see far and think through it. Transgenic technology really needs to be treated with care." After a long time, the father of hybrid rice came back to their senses.
The terrible consequences of Ye Chen's analysis are not in the imagination. As the technology matures, such terrible consequences are likely to occur, and GM technology must be taken seriously.
"I have the same attitude towards GM, so I use hybrid rice technology to study rice," said the father of hybrid rice.
Hybrid rice is selected from two rice varieties that are genetically different, and at the same time their good traits are complementary, to produce first-generation hybrids with heterosis for production.
In the final analysis, hybrid rice is carried out between rice, which will improve the variety of rice, will not cause species mutation, and does not have the uncertain consequences of genetic modification.
"Xiaoye, I invite you to come here. I want to conquer super rice and prove that there is no higher level of life. What do you think about this?" The father of hybrid rice looked at Ye Chen with a gaze.
Chen Wang's eyes were hot.
