This is... either improbable or much more

difficult than isolating genes for ocean-based

plant life (surviving in the sea) and modifying

the watermeal genome with it, so it can thrive

on the oceans,

 

 

but.... just an idea:

 

if. to isolate the genome that allows watermeal

its growth on freshwater.

 

and combining this with every other land-based

plantation out there.

 

It would need much, much more water, but

the growth of it would be... immense.

 

but... possibly improbable/incompatible unless to

change much of the target vegetation's characteristics.

 

while still retaining that value on growth over land.

can it still benefit from the water,

and rapid growth/division of cells?

 

it will also change the biochemical composition

of the vegetation. so what is a potato, no longer

tastes like a potato. what is tomato, no longer

tastes like a tomato. what is grass, is no longer

grass.

 

however. if to benefit from the 'growth' of it all.

and still is edible for animals.....
