For example if Plant A was really vulnerable to a certain virus, but plant B was not due to a certain protein. The gene for said protein would be cut from plant be and inserted in to the genome of plant A. Therefore conferring resistance to plant A, letting it grow without hindrance from the virus.
There is a lot of talk about GM food being bad, but there is nothing to worry about. and these added genes are just broken up like everything else, and all other DNA you ingest, in your stomach. It is broken down, and used to create (among other things) your genes! amazing. =-)
Once step closer to bigger yeilds and therefore more food for everyone. If only this organic fad would die out.
Genetic engineering allows us to directly delete, modify, and add genes to plants. The goals are largely the same, with the exception of many modification being made to make our crops resistant to herbicides and pesticides by taking a gene from one species and inserting it into a totally different and unrelated species (bacteria gene into corn, for example). This technique expands on the natural process of vertical breeding within species to horizontal breeding of different species.
Humanity has lived without it for a very long time. Why would we need it now? Plus if it is invented, some people are bound to misuse it. So I say no, it isn't necessary. Of course there are conflicting views on the subject.
Some applications of genetic engineering in agriculture and medicine are diagnostic tools, gene therapy, DNA fingerprinting, using genetic engineering to remove DNA from one organism and insert it into an organism of another species, etc.
Scientist have concluded that plants that are genetically engineered grow faster and be stronger as a full grown plant. This is because, when pestisides are sprayed near the plants, the weeds around it will be killed and the plant will withstand the chemical.
Genetic engineering is very helpful towards agriculture because scientist have come up with genetically mutated plants that can withstand tougher weather conditions and therefore produce higher yields.
However, there are risks to genetically mutating plants. There is the risk that the mutation will be wrong, and there is much trial and error involved. So far, though, the risks have not proven to out-weigh the benefits.
yes.E. coli it is widly used in genetic engenierin due to their low condition to growth ans replicate
By using the the technologies of genetic engineering it is possible to alter the genetics of a normal variety of a plant and transform it into a high yielding variety.
Mainly agriculture
AnswerThe three types of genetic engineering are:Applied genetic engineering which includes cloning and transgenesis.Chemical genetic engineering which includes genes mapping, gene interaction, and genes codingAnalytical genetic engineering which includes computer mapping.
Short Answer is: our understanding of genetic engineering.
what made genetic engineering possible
an example of genetic engineering are like: Cloning IVF
Genetic engineering techniques have been applied in numerous fields including agriculture. One of the best-known applications of genetic engineering in agriculture is genetically modified organisms.

Short Answer is: our understanding of genetic engineering.
The increase in population due to Urbanization has required an increase in agriculture to feed the growing population. This has led to innovations in farming practices - such as irrigation, crop rotation, and genetic engineering.
the risks and benefits of genetic engineering.
what made genetic engineering possible
The same things that have motivated people to use conventional breeding methods in agriculture and to use conventional medical techniques to better treat diseases in medicine. Genetic engineering just offers additional options, it does not have different motivations.
Its to cold to grow many things.Also no permanent residants live there so there is no need for agriculture.Some plants do grow, but maybe in the future, if we ever colonize antarctica,genetic engineering can make agriculture possible.
