Tomatoes have gotten larger and ripen later due to genetic modification. Cattle has started to undergo genetic modification to produce more milk and meat products for consumption.

Timeline of Events 1935 – DNA Discovered: Russian scientist Andrei Nikolaevitch Belozersky isolates pure DNA. 1980 – First GMO Patent Issued: A 1980 court case between a genetics engineer at General Electric and the U. S. Patent Office is settled by a 5 -to-4 Supreme Court ruling, allowing for the first patent on a living organism. 1982 – FDA Approves First GMO: Humulin, insulin produced by genetically engineered E. coli bacteria, appears on the market. 1994 – GMO Hits Grocery Stores: The U. S. Food and Drug Administration approves the Flavr Savr tomato for sale on grocery store shelves. The delayed-ripening tomato has a longer shelf life than conventional tomatoes. 1996 – GMO-Resistant Weeds: Weeds resistant to glyphosate, a herbicide used with many GMO crops, are detected in Australia. Research shows that the superweeds are seven to 11 times more resistant to glyphosate than the standard susceptible population. 1999 – GMO Food Crops Dominate: Over 100 million acres worldwide are planted with genetically engineered seeds. The marketplace begins embracing GMO technology at an alarming rate. 2003 – GMO-Resistant Pests: In 2003, a Bt-toxin-resistant caterpillar-cum-moth, Helicoverpa zea, is found feasting on GMO Bt cotton crops in the southern United States. In less than a decade, the bugs have adapted to the genetically engineered toxin produced by the modified plants.

Most researchers and scientists have deemed GMOs safe and that they do not pose any health risks to humans. Some believe that GMOs are responsible for certain food allergies, cancers, and damages to reproductive health (however those claims have been difficult to prove). “…the study committee found no substantiated evidence of a difference in risks to human health between currently commercialized genetically engineered (GE) crops and conventionally bred crops, nor did it find conclusive cause-and -effect evidence of environmental problems from the GE crops. ” - U. S. National Academy of Sciences, 2016
