Question

Explain the given genetically modified crops

i) BT Brinjal ii) Golden Rice​

Answer 1

Answer:

FSB-resistant brinjal or Bt brinjal was developed using a transformation process similar to the one used in the development of Bt cotton, a biotech crop that was planted on 7.6 million hectares in India in 2008. Bt brinjal incorporates the cry1Ac gene expressing insecticidal protein to confer resistance against FSB.

Golden rice is a variety of rice (Oryza sativa) produced through genetic engineering to biosynthesize beta-carotene, a precursor of vitamin A, in the edible parts of rice. ... The parental strain can naturally produce beta-carotene in its leaves, where it is involved in photosynthesis.

Answer:

Bt brinjal is inserted with a new gene for cry proteins

Golden Rice: The Imperiled Birth of a GMO Superfood Golden Rice, which was developed in the hopes of combatting that problem by a team of European scientists in the late '90s, was genetically modified to provide an essential nutrient that white rice lacks: beta-carotene, which is converted into vitamin A in the body.
