Transgenic corn is the use of modern molecular biotechnology, the species relationship is very remote and useful plant genes into the maize genetic material that needs to be improved, and make its offspring reflect the maize with stable genetic traits that people pursue. Transgenic technology is the core technology for the production of transgenic corn, which uses DNA recombination technology to transfer foreign genes to recipient organisms to produce directional and stable genetic changes, that is, to make new receptor organisms obtain new traits. Since the advent of genetically modified corn, although some of its improved characters can meet people's requirements, but its safety is still controversial. Scientists and governments also hold different attitudes towards genetically modified corn.

The method of identifying genetically modified Maize

There are some ways to tell whether genetically modified corn is or not. Genetically modified corn is sweet, crisp, full, graceful and similar in head and grain tail. Several criteria for judging genetically modified food:

1. Size. According to tradition, tomatoes also have a certain size, such as: small tomatoes as big as thumbs are definitely genetically modified. For example, soybeans, also known as soybeans, are made of tofu and soy milk, which should be shaped like animal internal organs: waist, a bit flat, but today's soybeans are all round, much bigger, like peas, with high yields, that is, genetically modified.

2. Color. What is absolutely different from the traditional ones is genetically modified, such as colored cotton and colored chili peppers.

3. Output. Genetically modified crops generally produce much higher yields than traditional crops in the first few years.

4. Season. In addition to greenhouse vegetables, other out-of-season foods are easy to be genetically modified.

5. Pests. All crops that pests like to patronize are not genetically modified, and crops that pests are afraid of, that is, crops with no pests, or few pests, are genetically modified.
