Errr.... wait, this is reality. Wonder what kind of restrictions are in place? How far can you go? Is this how Ents came to be?

I love this stuff! I cannot wait to buy super rice, super corn and eat my pork with human genes to make it lean. I mean its like the farmer who's family was saved by a pig. Afterwards they only ate the pig on special occasions! "A pig that good you do not eat all at once!"

Loverly. If you want to use a greater concentration of toxins, create new toxins to kill everything which isn't a species specificly domesticated for the use of humans.
Considering that viruses and bacteria incorporate genes from other species into themselves, can transfer those incorporated genes between species -- and there can be cross-pollination between domesticated and wild sub-species, with close wild subspecies of two different species being able to act as a pollination bridge between species -- how long do you think it'll take before a new super-resistant FrankenPest species arises? Which will require even harsher more powerful toxic chemicals to control? It's a win-win-win situation. Create a profitable toxin -> Create a profitable resistant domesticated strain to make even more profit by encouraging greater use of that toxin -> Increase profits by deforming and/or killing off non-patented domesticated strains so growers hafta buy your patented toxins and your patented domesticated strains -> Create a resistant pest and a need for a new toxin -> Create an even greater percentage of profits taken out of cost of growing agricultural products -> Create a new domesticated strain resistant to the new toxin -> Repeat over and over again until only domesticated species and pest species can survive the the toxic onslaught.
Of course if ya ain't an agrichemical corporation profiting off of genocide, ya might have some objections.
