  1. Agricultural Biotechnology in India Sanjay Saxena

  2. “Transgenics” or GMOs are defined as those organisms with a gene or genetic construct of interest that has been introduced by molecular or recombinant DNAtechniques

  3. Transgenics • The power of this technique lies in its ability to move genes from one organism to crop plants to impart novel characteristics • It is possible to transfer genetic material from algae, bacteria, viruses or animals to plants or to move genes between sexually incompatible species

  4. Gene gun

  5. Transformation by Gene gun

  6. Application of GM technology • Improving yield • Nutritional improvement • Increasing shelf life of fruits and vegetables by delayed ripening • Conferring resistance to insects, pests and viruses • Tolerance to abiotic stresses (drought, salt, water-logging) • Herbicide tolerance • Edible vaccines

  7. Control Flaver Saver

  8. GM crops : Global status (2005) • Developing countries : 11 • Industrial countries : 10 • Countries joining the GM club in 2005 (Iran, Portugal, France & Czech Republic) • No. of EU countries growing GM (2005) : 3 to 5(Spain & Germany) • No. of farmers growing GM crops globally : 8.5 million • No. of Indian farmers growing GM crops : 1 million • First triple gene product (maize) released in US in 2005
