Introduction:
Recombinant DNA technology involves the isolation of genetic materials (DNA) from donor organisms (human, plant, or microorganism) and inserts them into recipient organisms after genetic manipulation. This technology is used to introduce genetically-modified organisms (GMO). The main goals of this technology are to provide (i) elimination of undesirable
