Mark Lindgren MLA Research Paper Dr. Cherif Correa Biotechnology and Genetic Engineering in Plants In the 1920’s‚ a man named Henry Wallace founded a company called “The Hi-Bred Corn Company.” He began selecting corn plants that flourished in certain aspects and bred them with other prosperous plants to make a hybrid. After pollenating the female silk of one plant with the pollen of another; the resulting offspring displayed both traits. This idea of ‘selective breeding’ would go on to become
