the passage and lecturer are both about genetically modified trees and its effect. while the passage suggests that genetically modified trees have different benefits, the lecture disputes this idea.
First, the passage claims that the genetically modified will survive in nature more than the natural trees. However, the lecture disputes this point. she claims that the genetically modified trees are uniform in their genetics ( do not have a variation in their gene that enable them to resist the changes in the environment like the natural trees) are which means more vulnerable to climate changes and likely die faster.
Second, the passage assumes that the genetically modified trees will bring economic benefits since they are growing faster and produce more fruit. the lecturer disagrees with this idea. she said that the farmers pay more money to buy the genetically modified seeds and it is illegal to use the seeds that produced from the genetically modified trees every year.
Third, the passage suggests that genetically modified trees could stop the overexploitation of wild trees. However, the lecturer argues this point. she said that genetically modified trees will cause damage and harm the natural trees. she explains that the modified trees usually growing in an aggressive way and outcompete the natural trees for resources like nutrients and light.
