What do you mean there's no widespread use of biotechnology in America? Every fruit/vegetable that you eat comes from a plant that has been altered by botanists to produce the most food/be the best quality.

And actually the chance to reproduce a recessive gene is 25% or 1/4 (not
calculating in some genes that only come bound together with other genes).

The point of the experiment to make more trees like this one is to mate it with hundreds of other trees in order to determine if the tree's gene is simply recessive or a genetic mutation.
