Answer:
To produce a GM plant, new DNA is transferred into plant cells. ... Genetic modification of plants involves adding a specific stretch of DNA into the plant's genome, giving it new or different characteristics. This could include changing the way the plant grows, or making it resistant to a particular disease.
