Recombinant DNA technology (Inserting foreign DNA in the host organism)
Introduction and History Recombinant DNA molecules are developed in the laboratory by bringing together genetic materials from multiple organisms to produce new genetic combinations that are not previously found in biological organisms. These new combinations are made to benefit science, medicine, agriculture, and industry (Khan, S et al., 2016). Stanford researcher Paul Berg, 1972, ligated […]
