Photographic Print : Square tomato
Photo Prints from Science Photo Library
Square tomato
Square tomato. Conceptual image of a tomato that has a cuboid shape. This could represent a tomato that has been genetically modified to form this shape to allow more efficient packaging and easier slicing. Genetically modified (GM) tomatoes are commercially available, but are still round. Such changes in shape can also be achieved by growing the fruit in a suitably shaped container. Genetic modification is the alteration of an organisms DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) to create inherited changes. For food crops, the changes can include improved shelf-life and resistance to disease

EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing print captures the essence of genetic modification in the 21st century. A square tomato, an abnormal yet captivating sight, stands as a symbol of scientific progress and biotechnological advancements. The concept behind this image is to showcase how genetic engineering can manipulate nature's creations for improved efficiency and practicality. In this conceptual representation, the cuboid-shaped tomato signifies potential benefits such as more efficient packaging and easier slicing. While commercially available genetically modified tomatoes are still round, this image explores the possibilities that lie within altering their shape through genetic manipulation or growing them in specially designed containers. Genetic modification involves altering an organism's DNA to create inherited changes. For food crops like tomatoes, these modifications can lead to improved shelf-life and disease resistance. However, it is important to note that commercial use should not be mentioned here. The fusion of biology and technology showcased in this print highlights humanity's continuous quest for innovation. It sparks curiosity about what other wonders genetic engineering may bring forth in our future. As we delve deeper into understanding genetics, we unlock new dimensions where shapes become malleable elements subject to human ingenuity. This Science Photo Library capture invites us to ponder on the boundaries between natural inheritance and human intervention while appreciating the beauty found within these extraordinary biological transformations.
