Genetics Engineering And Its Applications

Description

This book explores genetic engineering and its applications. The reader through this book, will learn how engineers apply their understanding of DNA, especially to manipulate specific genes; so as to produce desired traits. They will also learn the application of this by genetic engineers to address current problems facing humanity. They will learn what genetic engineering means and instances of its applications. They will also get the opportunity to explore the moral and ethical problems related to the implementation of genetic engineering. Genetic engineers have developed genetic recombination techniques to manipulate gene sequences in plants, animals and other organisms to express specific traits. Applications for genetic engineering are increasing as engineers and scientists work together to identify the locations and functions of specific genes in the DNA sequence of various organisms. Once each gene is classified, engineers develop ways to alter them to create organisms that provide benefits. There are a lot of applications in this field, especially in the field of agriculture. Recognition and editing of genetic code can even help prevent genetic mutations that can cause serious developmental disorders or other health problems. Genetic engineering is an exciting and beneficial field with a lot of opportunities and scope for implementation, for the betterment of people. This book is highly recommended for anyone interested in pursuing genetic engineering professionally.
