The following points highlight the two types of mutation strategies. The Strategies are: 1. Cell Type-Specific Mutation Strategies 2. Inducible Mutation Strategies. 1. Cell Type-Specific Mutation Strategies: When a null mutation of a gene results in a mutant phenotype, limitations in the interpretation of that phenotype can arise because the gene is inactivated in every […]

Transgenic Crops for Plant Breeding | Biotechnology
In this article we will discuss about the transgenic crops for plant breeding. Conventional plant breeding has been extremely successful and increased financial support for plant breeding will be necessary if plant breeding is to both maintain and improve crop yields. However, there are some limitations inherent in conventional plant breeding such as lack of […]
Notes on Modern Biotechnology
The below mentioned article provides notes on modern biotechnology. Biotechnology is any technique that uses living organisms or substances from those organisms to make or modify a product, improve plants or animals, or develop microorganisms for specific uses. The key components of modern biotechnology are: 1. Genomics: The molecular characterisation of all species; 2. Bioinformatics: […]
