1. By adding an enzyme to the DNA that strengthens the cell membrane to make the plant cell more resistant to disease, therefor the fruit would be larger and healthier.

1. You could genetically alter the seed, to ensure that it recieves the superior genes from the parent tree. Tests are going on now, in which chemists are genetically altering fruit to make them last longer and grow healthier.
2. DNA ligase
