Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which of the following is a common method for producing transgenic plants? (2022)
  • Step 1: Understand what transgenic plants are. They are plants that have had genes from other organisms inserted into their DNA.
  • Step 2: Learn about Agrobacterium. It is a type of bacteria that can naturally transfer DNA to plants.
  • Step 3: Know that scientists use Agrobacterium to help insert new genes into plant cells.
  • Step 4: The process involves introducing the Agrobacterium with the desired gene into the plant cells.
  • Step 5: The plant cells then take up the new gene and incorporate it into their own DNA.
  • Step 6: Finally, these modified plant cells can grow into whole plants that express the new traits.
