Transgenic crops are plants that have been artificially modified with genes from other plants or non-plant organisms to enhance their growth, resilience, and adaptability. The process involves locating and transferring the desired gene, and the resulting crops are highly regulated for safety. Genetically modified crops are commonly used to improve the health of existing plants […]
Transgenic organisms are created by inserting DNA from one species into the genome of another using a virus, plasmid, or gene gun. This can be done for a variety of reasons, such as making crops more nutritious or creating transgenic mice for medical research. However, there is controversy surrounding the practice due to concerns about […]
Transgenic animals have had their DNA altered by inserting another animal’s DNA into their own code. They can be used for research, medicine, and food production. The public is still wary of eating them, and there are concerns about their impact on native populations. The GloFish® brand is a notable example of a transgenic animal, […]
