Cornell Students Develop Color-changing Tomato |
|
|
|
Doctoral students Jacob Belding and Ava Forystek of Cornell University successfully developed genetically engineered tomato plants that turn vivid red when the soil nitrogen levels are low. Known as RedAlert Living Sensors, the modified plants are expected to help gardeners, farmers, and hydroponic growers become informed if their tomato plants need more nitrogen to grow.

|
|
|
A study conducted in China found that genetically modified (GM) labeling significantly influences consumer purchase intentions using data from 800 participants across two product contexts, edible soybean oil and non-edible cotton. The research investigated how consumers interpret GM and non-GM labels, revealing that self-assessed knowledge and perceived risk play a significant role in shaping their behavior.
