Modification means converting (e.g.):
a. Tall height to short height,
b. Late maturing to early maturing,
c. Disease susceptible to disease resistant,
d. Low yielding to high yielding,
e. Stress susceptible to stress tolerant
f. Low food quality to high food quality
Genetically Modified Crop is a crop whose genetic characteristics have been altered by the insertion of a gene or a gene from another organism using the techniques of genetic engineering.

To decrease our world hunger and to make the plant more nutritious the transgenic technique was developed. This the basis of the transgenic plant and its technique
Genetically modified organisms (GMOs) are organisms in which the
genetic material has been altered using recombinant DNA technology.
Genetic manipulation involves a wide variety of modifications to produce
nutritionally valued GM crops. In some cases, genetic modifications
represent more faster and efficient mechanisms for achieving desired
resulting traits. This review indicate the mechanism of group of actions
with various biotechnological tool utilize to carry out genetic
modification, their benefits, etc. Production of GM food crops provides
new ways to fulfill future food requirments but risk associated factors
cannot be neglected. To overcome these problems and to cope with the
continuous increase in the number and variety of GMOs, new approaches
are needed. India has approved cultivation of some GM crops but due to
lack of proper knowledge and religious factors lead to stunted outcomes
ignoring environment cleanliness and hunger of malnourished segments.
So more attention still needed for its adoption globally by ensure its
safety for human utilization.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

18. Transgenic Bt Cotton
BT Cotton is GM Variety of cotton
Produce insecticide
Produced by Monsanto Company
Bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) produces
harmful chemicals to selective insects
The CRY 1Ac gene coding for Bt Toxin (cry
proteins) inserted into cotton
It Eliminates the need to use large amounts of
broad spectrum insecticides
Cotton incorporated with cry 1Ac gene makes it
toxic to bollworms
19.
20. Modeof action of Bt Cotton
When insect larva attack and eat cotton the cry
protein are dissolved
Dissolved and activated cry proteins molecules
bound to receptor proteins on epithelial cell
comprising brush border membrane of epithelial
cell of midgut.
Ion Channels formed in cell membrane which allow
flow of potassium ions
Regulation of potassium ion lost and results in
death of epithelial cell.
Death of epithelial cell creates gap in brush border
membrane resulting in death of larvae
22. Synthetic / Artificial Seeds
Living seed like structures
Produce experimentally by encapsulating the
somatic embryos derived from plant tissue culture
in a hydrogel
Behaves like true seeds if grown in soil
Radenbangh et al found that sodium alginate could
be used to produce artificial seeds

wait for long time.
Production is not time dependent or season
dependent
Useful to shorten life cycle of plant
Used to overcome dormancy period
Help to study the role of endosperm and seed
coat formation
25. SalientAchievements of Crop Biotechnology
Some of the recent developments in crop
biotechnology are as given below-
A. Crop Yield- One or more genes may be
transferred to a highly developed crop variety to
introduce new characters that would increases
its yield
B. Reduce Vulnerability of crops to environmental
stresses- Crop resistant to biotic and abiotic
stress have been developed. Eg. Plant gene At-
DBF2 from Arabidopsis thaliana shows
tolerance to salt, drought, heat and cold. Rice
plant resistant to RYM Virus created.
26. C. Increased Nutritional Qualities- Proteins in food
require modification to increase its nutritional
qualities. Protiens in legumes and cereals may be
transformed to provide amino acids needed by
human beings for balanced diet.
Eg. In Golden rice scientist introduced three genes
associated with biosynthesis of carotenoids.GM
rice produces beta carotene which is converted to
vitamin A.
D. Improved taste, texture or appearance of food-
Modern Biotechnology used to slow down the
process of fruit, vegetable , oil seed spoilage.
Modified fruits can ripen longer and
transported.Researchers modified tomato and
27. E. Reduced Dependence on fertilizers, pesticides and
other agrochemicals-
-Bt produces bt toxin with insecticidal qualities.
- Crops have been engineered to aquire tolerance to
broad spectrum herbicide. The herbicide tolerant
crops have potential of increasing yield .
- Transgenic crops that express tolerance to
glyphosate, glufosinate and bromoxynil have been
developed.
F. Production of Novel substances in crop plants-
- Oil seeds can be modified to produce fatty acids for
detergents
- Potatoes, tomatoes, rice, tobacco, lettuce,
safflowers have been genetically engineered to
produce insulin and vaccines.
28. G. Glyphosate resistance- One of most famous kinds
of GM crops are Roundup ready or glyphosate
resistant crops. Glyphosate kill plants by intefering
with shikimic acid pathway in plant,
H. Improved shelf life- The first genetically modified
crop approved for sale in us was Flavr savr tomato
which had longer shelf life, A gene in fruit has been
modified in such way that apple produces less
polyphenol oxidase , a chemical that manifests
browning
I.Pathogen resistance- Tobacco , Corn, rice and many
other crops have been generated that express
genes encoding for insecticidal proteins from Bt
