Solution
The correct option is C Crops less tolerant to abiotic stress
GM plants have been useful in many ways. Genetic modification has made crops more tolerant to abiotic stresses (cold, drought, salt,heat) and not the other way around. GM plants are not only capable of withstanding stress but also help reduce reliance on chemical pesticides and prevent early exhaustion of soil fertility. Moreover, these plants also have enhanced nutritional value.
