least greatly reduce hunger and malnutrition through greater yields and sturdier crops. However‚ others believe that this kind of genetic engineering cannot be justified because GM crops threaten the environment and may cause havoc through cross-pollination. They could have as yet unknown effects on human health by causing unexpected allergic reactions and transferring antibiotic resistance markers. A potentially more serious criticism is that it leads to the exploitation of developing countries: many

(www.fastplants.org) The color variations we observed among the plants were that some had green stalks while others were purple. The pigment which gives plants their color is called anthocyanin.
