Genetic Modification

What is genetic modification in plant ?

• adding a specific stretch of DNA into the plant's genome, giving it new or different characteristics.

• adding a green color into the plant's genome, giving it new or different characteristics.

• adding water into the plant's genome, giving it new or different characteristics.

The part of the bacterium into which the foreign DNA is inserted is called the
