Genetics work will also point the way to sturdier, more flavorful tomatoes—albeit hybrid varieties whose sterile seeds cannot be passed down from generation to generation but must be purchased anew by growers each season.
I read this more as that the genetics being worked on will be designed to result in hybrids with sterile seeds. Sounds like terminator technology.

Simply an idiotic article, no matter how you slice it.
