Biotechnology of plants is a method of using science and technology in plants, parts, products and models, changing living or inert materials to develop knowledge, goods and services. Plant biotechnology is still a relatively new undertaking in the sense of using recombinant DNA techniques to improve crops or producing valuable molecules in plants. Plant biotechnology will facilitate crop farming, especially in the absence of pesticides, with multiple lasting resistance to pests and diseases. Genetic engineering and transformation techniques have helped to produce transgenic plants with desirable characteristics such as disease resistance, insect resistance and herbicide resistance, and can also be used to increase photosynthetic efficiency, nitrogen fixation, improved protein storage, hybrid crops, etc.
Therefore, the possibilities for improving current products and making new products by means of plant biotechnology are, in principle, almost limitless.
