Papaya plantations in Hawaii have recorded cases of a virus that decreases the health of the papaya plants. To combat the virus, genetic engineers have developed a papaya plant that has the DNA of the virus, making the plant immune to the effects of the virus. Which is a likely concern for farmers about the genetically modified papaya plants?

 Concerns were the health risk associated with those who will eat Genetically modified papaya.

Explanation:

Scientists tried to make a genetically modified papaya in Hawaii because papaya industry was dropping drastically due to PRS virus infection and thousands of farmers had lost their jobs. Then the scientist genetically modified papaya plants by inserting virus resistant genes. This helped a lot in producing disease free crops.

The main ethical concern of farmers was to understand the health risk associated with the crops which are genetically modified with viral genome could cause health complications to consumers.
