By adding the genes for frost resistance to plants and animals
we could add or rescue crops worth billions of dollars, and
revolutionize agriculture in colder climates.
By adding the right genes to the human genome, human beings
could naturally survive being frozen.
Every year large crops are lost because of cold weather.
Oranges in Florida comes to mind. And elsewhere strawberries in the
spring and tomatoes in the fall.
On the other hand many plants and animals are able to survive
freezing conditions.
How can we systematically identify the most cold resistant
organisms?
How do they react to freezing and thawing, and how can we replicate
the same conditions in other organisms?
Rather than trying to reach all cells and induce from outside the
necesary conditions for the cells to survive freezing and thawing,
it seems to me that it would be easier to equip each cell with the
necessary genetic makeup to itself create the necessary conditions
to survive being frozen. And what better way to reach all cells
than by changing the original embryo cell?
If we could identify the genes that enable certain organisms to
survive being frozen, and if we could add these genes to the
genetic makeup of the crops we grow and the animals we raise, then
this would have a revolutionary effect on agriculture in colder
climates.
Not just would valuable crops be saved, but we could greatly
enhance our ability to feed the world.
In Norway they already add genes from cold water fish to spruce
trees in the hope of increasing the acreage where spruce trees will
survive.
And if memory serves me right, in the United States they have
modified the genetic makeup of bacteria growing on strawberries in
the hope of protecting the latter against ice crystals.
The economic incentive is there for financing the necessary
research.
And once we can modify plants and animals so these can survive
being frozen, then we would have the necessary knowledge to
accomplish the same with humans.
In other words: what genes would we have to add to the human
genome, so that humans would naturally survive being frozen?
And who has the courage to try it?
First on plants, then on animals and finally on humans?
Long life,
Trygve B. Bauge
