GMO
↑
-GMOs refer to any organism whose genetic material has
been altered using genetic engineering techniques. This can
include plants, animals, and microorganisms.
Transgenic Plants
-Transgenic plants, on the other hand, specifically refer to
plants that have had genes from another species introduced
into their DNA using genetic engineering techniques.

Gene-edited plants are created using a newer ⑳
technique called CRISPR-Cas9. This allows scientists to
precisely edit the DNA of a plant without introducing
genes from another species
