Detailed explanation-1: -Definition. Genetic engineering (also called genetic modification) is a process that uses laboratory-based technologies to alter the DNA makeup of an organism. This may involve changing a single base pair (A-T or C-G), deleting a region of DNA or adding a new segment of DNA.
Detailed explanation-2: -Genetic engineering, also called genetic modification or genetic manipulation, is the modification and manipulation of an organism’s genes using technology.
Detailed explanation-3: -GM is a technology that involves inserting DNA into the genome of an organism. To produce a GM plant, new DNA is transferred into plant cells. Usually, the cells are then grown in tissue culture where they develop into plants. The seeds produced by these plants will inherit the new DNA.
Detailed explanation-4: -Traditional Crop Modification. Traditional methods of modifying plants, like selective breeding and crossbreeding, have been around for nearly 10, 000 years. Genetic Engineering. Genome Editing. 17-Feb-2022
