Apart from the fact that farmers will need to be dependent on monopolistic or oligopolistic companies by way of using GM crops, won't the use of GM crops also result in genetic erosion as local varieties are replaced with GM seeds?

Research has led to discovery of a genetic method that can increase biomass in algae by 50 percent to 80 percent. The breakthrough comes from expressing certain genes in algae that increase the amount of photosynthesis in the plant, which leads to more biomass. This opens up possibilities for more and better biofuel development. - http://westernfarmpress.com/management/algae-biomass-gets-major-genetic-engineering-boost
