Greetings Fellow Explorer:
O The breeding experiment of sunstalks was a success! From this experiment, we learned that metal tolerance is indeed a heritable trait.
O However, as is the case with many traits, metal tolerance in sunstalks is a continuous variable that depends on hundreds of genes.
O Therefore, it would be impractical to use gene-editing tools to save the population sunstalks.
O Instead, we selected sunstalks with sufficient metal tolerance and transplanted them to the contaminated
