Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Genetic modification of plants involves adding a specific stretch of DNA into the plant’s genome, giving it new or different characteristics. This could include changing the way the plant grows, or making it resistant to a particular disease.
Detailed explanation-2: -Pathogen-Derived Resistance and RNAi Researchers have long observed that transgenic plants expressing genes derived from viral pathogens often display immunity to the pathogen and its related strains (Lomonossoff, 1995).
Detailed explanation-3: -Therefore, the answer to the question, which of the following best defines genetic engineering, is genetic engineering is the modification of the DNA of an organism.
