Let's define what biotechnology does to genetically modified plants:

Plants like C4 and CAM plants are genetically modified to withstand harsher environmental factors, such as heat and heavy winds, etc. Some other genetically modified organisms also have special "abilities" against predators, etc.

Therefore, let's apply this context to the problem. Recall that GMOs are modified to become more resistant to the environment, whether it be living or not:

Biotechnology will allow the development of crops containing genes that will enable them to withstand abiotic and biotic stresses.​
