At present decisions are being taken which are influencing society and environment worldwide: New crops are being planted and products derived from them are being sold fraudulently (without labels and risk information) on the world market. Huge areas are being invaded by newly designed organisms: organism whose long term effects to eco systems are unknown and which can never be brought back if there are adverse effects. Patent laws are being issued making plants, animals and parts of the human body the property of single persons and companies.

Transforming Plants - Basic Genetic Engineering Techniques Pamela Peters. "Biotechnology: A Guide to Genetic Engineering." Dubuque, IA: Wm. C. Brown Publishers, 1993. Cloning of Plant Cells and Manipulation of Plant Genes Plants that can be cloned with relative ease include carrots, tomatoes, potatoes, petunias, and cabbage, to name only a few. The capability to grow a whole plant from a single cell means that researchers can engage in the genetic manipulation of the cell, let the cell develop into a completely mature plant, and examine the whole spectrum of physical and growth effects of the genetic manipulation within a relatively short period of time. Such a process is far more straightforward than the parallel process in animal cells, which cannot be cloned into full-grown adults. Therefore, the results of any genetic manipulation are usually easier to examine in plants than in animals. A Cloning Vector that Works with Plant Cells Not all aspects of the genetic manipulation of plant cells are readily accomplished. Not only do plants usually have a great deal of chromosomal material and grow relatively slowly as compared with single cells grown in the laboratory, but few cloning vectors can successfully function in plant cells. While researchers working with animal cells can choose among a wide variety of cloning vectors to find just the right one, plant cell researchers are currently limited to just a few basic types of vectors. Perhaps the most commonly used plant cloning vector is the "Ti" plasmid, or tumor-inducing plasmid. This plasmid is found in cells of the bacterium known as Agrobacterium tumefaciens, which normally lives in soil. The bacterium has the ability to infect plants and cause a crown gall, or tumorous lump, to form at the site of infection. The tumor-inducing capacity of this bacterium results from the presence of the Ti plasmid. The Ti plasmid itself, a large, circular, double-stranded DNA molecule, can replicate independently of the A. tumefaciens genome. When these bacteria infect a plant cell, a 30,000 base-pair segment of the Ti plasmid - called T DNA - separates from the plasmid and incorporates into the host cell genome. This aspect of Ti plasmid function has made it useful as a plant cloning vector.

GENETIC ENGINEERING: A CAUTIONARY APPROACH The Institute of Science, Technology and Public Policy has taken a strong precautionary stand on genetic engineering. In collaboration with leading scientists and other public service organizations, it has launched a nation-wide public awareness campaign to alert the public about the dangers of genetically engineered foods, and is calling for rigorous safety testing and mandatory labeling of such foods. Contents: Genetic Engineering of Humans Genetic Engineering of Foods What is genetic engineering and how does it work? What is our government doing? ... Safety First Genetic Engineering of Humans Genetic engineering, or "recombinant DNA technology", is a radical new technology for transplanting genetic characteristics of one species into another. It has been used thus far primarily for agriculturefor the creation, patenting and commercializing of genetically modified living organisms. (For example, the splicing of a specific flounder gene for producing a unique blood "antifreeze" protein into tomatoes, to render them frost resistant; splicing insect proteins into zucchinis to create a taste and fragrance that is repugnant to other insect pests; or growing potatoes endowed with built-in pesticides.) The biotech industry's rationale for the genetic engineering of humans is the predisposition of human beings (or of a specific sub-population) to certain diseases. If such human frailties could be fortified by genetically transplanting traits of other animals, insects, bacteria or viruses, then it might be possible for biotechnologists to improve upon our species.

134. Debunking Myths Article attacking genetic engineering, with references, by E. Ann Clark. http://www.plant.uoguelph.ca/research/homepages/eclark/myths.htm

D ebunking the Myths of Genetic Engineering in Field Crops E. Ann Clark Plant Agriculture University of Guelph , Guelph, ON ( e aclark@uoguelph.ca Presented to Alternatives, Kitchener, ON 2 March 99 Genetic engineering (GE) is the splicing of genes from one organism to another, unrelated organism, to combine traits that would otherwise be very unlikely to occur together. Commercial examples often involve genes taken from soil microorganisms and spliced into plant DNA, with about two-thirds of all current commercial applications involving herbicide tolerance. Plants with microbial genes conferring tolerance to herbicides such as Roundup (glyphosate) or Liberty (glufosinate-ammonium) or broxomynil can then be sprayed with these products to control weeds without unduly harming the crops. How genes are spliced into foreign genomes is a complex and technical matter, and as such, can put off people like you and me who are not specialists in the field. But as private citizens, you don't need to concern yourself with the "how" so much as the "why", and I will argue, you who are going to have to live with the ramifications of GE must become more involved and participatory in the current "debate", which is really a non-debate because apart from citizen activists, and consumer and environmental groups, all of the main players - industry, government, and university - are active proponents. Proponents of genetic engineering have made many claims about the benefits of GE. How well do these claims stand up to independent scrutiny? Who is looking at the risk side of the equation? What are they finding, and why have consumers, producers, and policymakers heard so little about the downside of this modern miracle?

Institutes Quick Links Education (Home) Career Options Entrance Exams Competitive Exams ... Feedback Introduction Genetic Engineering (GE) is a highly complicated and advanced branch of science which involves a wide range of techniques used in changing the genetic material in the DNA code in a living organism. 'Genetic Engineering' means the deliberate modification of the characters of an organism by the manipulation of its genetic material. Genetic engineering comes under the broad heading of Biotechnology. There is a great scope in this field as the demand for genetic engineers are growing in India as well as abroad. A cell is the smallest living unit, the basic structural and functional unit of all living matter, whether a plant, an animal, humans or a fungus. While some organisms are single celled, others like plants, animals, humans etc are made up of a lot more cells. For eg humans have approximately 3 million cells. A cell is composed of a 'cell membrane' enclosing the whole cell, many 'organelles' equivalent to the organs in the body and a 'nucleus' which is the command centre of the cell. Inside the nucleus are the chromosomes which is the storage place for all genetic (hereditary) information which determines the nature and characteristics of an organism. This information is written along the thin thread, called DNA, a nucleic acid which constitutes the genes (units of heredity). The DNA governs cell growth and is responsible for the transmission of genetic information from one generation to the next.
