Abstract: The field of agricultural biotechnology has grown significantly over the past 30 years due to our understanding of DNA as the chemical double-helix code for genes. Genetic engineering, a recombinant DNA-based method, allows for the manipulation of individual genes and the transfer of genes between species that would not normally interbreed. This differs from conventional plant breeding, which has limited advancements due to the random rearranging of genes. Genetic engineering techniques are used when desired traits are not present in the crop's germplasm, are difficult to improve through conventional breeding, or take a long time to introduce.
Key words: crops, genetic, chemical, organism, code, produced, engineering.
