Transgenic Plants
Transgenic plants are genetically modified plants in which foreign source genes have been inserted into targeted plants. The Generation of
transgenic plants are referred as Transformation (i.e., uptake of foreign DNA by
plant cells.) and this technique is known as Transformation technique It is also known as
genetic engineering or genetic modification. The genetically modified plants are made to provide features such as higher yield or improved quality, pest or disease resistance, or tolerance to heat, cold and drought. Transgenic technology enables to bring together in one
plant useful genes from a wide range of living sources. And to generate more useful and productive crop varieties containing new combinations of genes. It also expands the possibilities beyond the limitations imposed by traditional cross-pollination and selection techniques.
