Genetically Engineered Plants. This paper discuses the role of biotechnology in the field of agriculture and focuses on different attributes of genetically engineered plants. Genetically modified plants are more diseases resistant and herbicide-tolerant than many traditionally bred plants, still the opponents of biotechnology feel that genetics engineering must stay away from the field of agriculture because crops produced by this method can create numerous health risks. Their concerns, whether genuine or not, have resulted in a ban over the production of genetically modified specific categories of crops in European countries but scientists are still trying to develop more sophisticated and safer technologies to use modify plant genome. 10 pgs.
