MeSH terms
· Genetically modified (GM) foods are foods derived from organisms whose genetic material (DNA) has been modified in a way that does not occur naturally, e.g. through the introduction of a gene from a different organism · The technology is often called “modern biotechnology” or “gene technology”, sometimes also “recombinant DNA technology” or “genetic engineering”. It allows selected individual genes to be transferred from one organism into another, also between nonrelated species. Foods produced from or using GM organisms are often referred to In , Genetically Engineered foods were introduced into the markets in the United States. By Genetically modified crops were introduced to farmers. In the beginning, there were million acres planted in 6 countries, which relatively quickly expanded to million acres, as seen in figure Graph Figure

· “GMO” (genetically modified organism) has become the common term consumers and popular media use to describe foods that have been created through genetic engineering. Genetic engineering is a Estimated Reading Time: 7 mins Unlike crossbreeding, genetic engineering involves inserting new and foreign genes into an organism. The most common genetically modified foods are corn, cotton, and sugar beets. Scientists and researchers are beginning to create more unique organisms with genetic engineering such as pigs that glow in the dark from bioluminescence genes found in jellyfishes In , Genetically Engineered foods were introduced into the markets in the United States. By Genetically modified crops were introduced to farmers.
