Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The process of expression of foreign genes in a plant is called ____
A
Gene expression
B
Transgenesis
C
Genetic transformation
D
Cell hybridization
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Explanation: Genetic transformation is the process of introducing, stably integration and expression of foreign genes in the plant. This whole process produces transgenic plants.

Detailed explanation-2: -Plant genetic transformation (PGT) is a process where DNA is introduced into plant cells, tissues, or organs using molecular and cellular biology methods.

Detailed explanation-3: -Genetic transformation involves the transfer and incorporation of foreign DNA into a host genome. In order for this transferred DNA to be transmitted to later generations, transformation of germline or other appropriate cells of the recipient species is essential.

Detailed explanation-4: -Genetic transformation is a process that involves the introduction and expression of foreign genes in a host organism. This expression can result from the extrachromosomal, or episomal, presence of genes in nuclei that may persist if the introduced DNA has a mechanism for replication.

Detailed explanation-5: -Transgene is a foreign gene artificially transferred into an organism.
