Global warming: Smart tomatoes strike back

Researchers from Kakatiya and Osmania Universities have successfully developed tomato varieties that are able to cope with increasing temperatures and withstand the onslaught of various pests.

They have produced a variety of "smart" tomatoes that can survive in drought conditions and in soils affected by salinity.


PS

Who knows, maybe catastrophic global warming in reality is the result of a devilish scheme created by smart killer tomatoes?
