Plant Genetic Modification

Plant Genetic Modification

Plant genetic modification (GM) involves the alteration of a plant's genetic material to develop desired traits, such as pest resistance or improved nutritional content. Techniques like CRISPR and transgenesis enable scientists to introduce, delete, or modify specific genes within the plant genome. GM crops have transformed agriculture by increasing yield and reducing the need for chemical inputs. Despite the advantages, public perceptions of GM technology vary, often leading to debates regarding safety, environmental impact, and ethical considerations. Ongoing research focuses on improving the precision of genetic modification techniques and addressing regulatory concerns, aiming to enhance the sustainability and efficiency of crop production systems.
