We're reducing the genetic diversity which, in turn, means that if one plant gets infected with a virus or a bacteria, more than likely the entire crop will quickly be infected. It has the potential to devistate entire crops and that's kinda scary. I mean, remember what happened to the Irish when they lost their potato crop?

Huitlacoche tacos, anyone?
