Summary
[edit]DescriptionMethods of Plant Breeding (8737954801).jpg |
The traditional plant breeding process introduces a number of genes into the plant. These genes may include the gene responsible for the desired characteristic, as well as genes responsible for unwanted characteristics. By contrast, genetic engineering enables the introduction into the plant of the specific gene or genes responsible for the characteristic(s) of interest. By narrowing the introduction to one or a few identified genes, scientists can introduce the desired characteristic without also introducing genes responsible for unwanted characteristics.
