Spoiler:
Scientists develop tobacco plant which turns red when it detects landmines | Mail Online
Quote:
A plant that can detect landmines has been developed by scientists.

The genetically-modified tobacco plant has a gene that triggers a red plant pigment found in tomatoes and apples.

When the roots detect nitrogen oxide which leaks from landmines, the green leaves turn red about ten weeks.


Well...I guess its useful.

Very useful, there's huge swathes of the world covered in landmines. I suppose it could also be a good way to recoup some of the cost of mine-clearing procedures, once you've cleared the field, you can sell the tobacco.

That's just gruesome. This gets points for interestingness and originality.

Exactly, reborn. And make some money too! No one gets any funds from a landmine death. Using tobacco to kill is good for the economy!
