What is the difference between a transgenic plant and a plant produced through selective breeding?
What is the role of Agrobacterium tumefaciens in the production of transgenic plants?a. Genes from A. tumefaciens are inserted into plant DNA to give the plant different traits.b. Transgenic plants have been given resistance to the pest A. tumefaciens.c. A. tumefaciens is used as a vector to move genes into plant cells.d. Plant genes are incorporated into the genome of Agrobacterium tumefaciens
Transgenic crops often require fewer herbicides and insecticides than conventional crops. In that respect, they could be considered environmentally friendly. Use the Internet to research the question of why some environmental groups oppose transgenic technology.

Explain the purpose behind each of these three agents. What would happen if you left out the kanamycin?arrow_forwardWhat modern-day problem can be solved by Genetic Engineering? Explain the unique characteristics will be exhibited by the GMO that will solve the problem. Briefly describe each.arrow_forward
- What are some of the problems that might arise if you were trying to produce a eukaryotic protein in a bacterium? How ight using transgenic plants or animals help solve some of these problems?arrow_forwardGenetically modified organisms (GMOs) are used to create human growth hormone, insulin and clotting factor proteins that are used to treat dwarfism, diabetes and hemophilia respectively. Several crops such as corn and soybean have also been genetically modified in order to facilitate either the management or growth of these crops. Why do you think there is push back or opposition against the use of GM food crops but not in the use of products such as insulin, which is also created using GMOs?arrow_forwardIRRI is currently in the process of developing a new variety of transgenic rice called Golden Rice. What is a transgenic organism? Describe what makes Golden Rice a transgenic organism. Why was Golden Rice developed?arrow_forward
- In order to manufacture insulin for patients with diabetes, scientists create recombinant DNA by inserting a human insulin gene into bacterial DNA and have the bacteria produce human insulin. Based on what you have learned in this unit about gene expression, what must the scientists do to the DNA sequence of the human insulin gene BEFORE inserting it into the bacteria, in order to have them produce the same insulin sequence that humans would produce? Explain.arrow_forwardWhat do you know about transgenic crops. Explain in detail with examples.arrow_forwardBacterial glucuronidase converts a colorless substance called X-Gluc into a bright blue indigo pigment. The gene for glucuronidase also works in plants if given a plant promoter region. How would you use this gene as a reporter gene to find the tissues in which a plant gene that you have just cloned is normally active? (Assume that X-Gluc is easily taken up by the plant tissues.)arrow_forward
- In what way has biotechnology had an impact on agriculture in the United States?arrow_forwardWhich vitamin is lacking from rice? Describe how genetic engineering has addressed this problem. What is the name of the GMO rice, and is it now widely cultivated?arrow_forwardWhat would be the Transgenic crops of the future. ?arrow_forward
