Scientists have found ways of inserting favorable genes into plants such as tomatoes, beans or corn to make the fruit of the plant less appetizing to insect pests. Another inserted gene allows the plant to survive heavy doses of chemical sprays that farmers sometimes use to control weeds in the fields.
