Nov 9, 2020 · The word “genetics” comes from the word “gene,” which is a small section of the instructions encoded in the DNA blueprint. Genetic modification refers to the purposeful altering of the DNA blueprint, and can be carried out in many different ways. Although the idea of genetic modification may be scary to some, humans have been creating ...
A genetically modified potato is a potato that has had its genes modified, using genetic engineering. Goals of modification include introducing pest resistance , tweaking the amounts of certain chemicals produced by the plant, and to prevent browning or bruising of the tubers.
