Answer:

Genetic manipulation is a process in which genes of desirable characters are taken from a plant and transferred to another plant by the technique of hybridisation. Genetic manipulation helps in obtaining desirable agronomic characters.A process done to manipulate the genome of an organism in order to produce desired traits.

EXAMPLE:

Some apple turn less brown when it is cut and kept for long time
Onions that do not make you cry
Golden rice
Carrots that help prevent osteoporosis

The use of genetic engineering and the creation of genetically modified crops has resulted in many benefits for the agricultural world. ... By modifying crops so that they are resistant to diseases and insects, less chemical pesticides have to be used

Plant breeders utilize genetic diversity to create improved crop varieties with traits such as yield, pest resistance and environment stress

hope it helps

Genetic manipulation is a process where the desired genes are isolated from one organism (plant) and transferred to the other organism (plant) by using the hybridization technique. Genetic manipulations help in obtaining traits which are not possible naturally such as dwarfness in cereals, tall and profuse branching in fodder crops. It helps in obtaining higher yield, resistance to pests, less maturity period, resistance to severe environmental conditions such as droughts, high alkalinity, floods etc.
