Genetic engineering is the technique of changing the phenotype of an organism by altering the chemical properties of the genetic material. Plants, fungi, bacteria, animals, etc which have been altered genetically are called Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO). In the process of producing transgenic plants the recombinant DNA isolated from the organisms and then genetically modified and introduced into the host cell. The plants are then regenerated from these modified host cells.
