Biotechnology is often used in forestry to develop pest-resistant tree species, helping to protect forests from invasive pests.

Bioremediation of contaminated soils is a common application of plant biotechnology, using plants to clean up environmental pollutants.

Recombinant DNA technology is used in gene therapy, antibiotic production, and plant breeding.

All of the above methods—electroporation, microinjection, and gene gun—are commonly used to introduce foreign DNA into plant cells.

Stem cell therapy has the potential to regenerate damaged tissues and treat various diseases.

One potential risk of genetically modified plants is the unintended effects they may have on non-target species in the ecosystem.

Plant taxonomy is the classification of plants and is not a direct application of plant biotechnology.

Increased crop resilience is generally seen as a benefit, not a concern, of GMOs.

Traditional breeding is not considered a method of plant biotechnology, as it does not involve modern genetic manipulation techniques.

Selective breeding is a traditional method and not a direct genetic modification technique like gene editing or transgenic technology.

Photosynthesis is a natural process for energy conversion in plants and is not a method of genetic transformation.

Auxin is a key hormone that regulates plant growth and is often manipulated in biotechnological applications.

Sanger sequencing is a widely used method for determining the nucleotide sequence of DNA.
