HORTICULTURE

Detailed explanation-1: -Medical Biotechnology. Medical biotechnology involves the use of living cells to develop technologies for the improvement of human health. Agricultural Biotechnology. Nutrient Supplementation. Abiotic Stress. Industrial Biotechnology. Strength Fibres. Biofuels. Healthcare. More items

Detailed explanation-2: -Today, the five branches into which modern biotechnology is divided-human, environmental, industrial, animal and plant-help us fight hunger and disease, produce more safely, cleanly and efficiently, reduce our ecological footprint and save energy.

Detailed explanation-3: -Genetic engineering, artificial selection, antibiotic production, and cell culture are current topics of study in biotechnology. However, humans have used prokaryotes before the term biotechnology was even coined.

Detailed explanation-4: -Biotechnology is the use of technology to change the genetic makeup of living things for human purposes. Two commonly used techniques are gene cloning and the polymerase chain reaction. Gene cloning involves four steps: isolation, ligation, transformation, and selection.

Detailed explanation-5: -Biotech or biotechnology is used in four major industries, healthcare, agriculture and crop production, non-food (industrial) application of crops and other products (for example, vegetable oil, biodegradable plastics, biofuels) and environmental uses.
