發生的有機體稱基因上修改過的有機體(GMOs)或基因改造的有機體。
The resulting organisms are called genetically modified organisms (GMOs) or transgenic organisms.
圖4-8概述在開發一棵基因上修改過的植物介入的步驟
Figure 4-8 outlines the steps involved in developing a genetically modified plant
與傳統雜交育種，基因接合的作為比較大多半同樣多時間開發新的莊稼或動物品種
Compared to traditional crossbreeding,gene splicing takes about half as much time to develop a new crop or animal variety
它也使我們從種類的不同的類型轉移基因，不用飼養擁有巨大諾言並且提出一定數量的法律，道德和環境問題的他們處理
It also enables us to transfer genes from different types of species without breeding them-a process that both holds great promise and raises a number of legal,ethical,and environmental issues
