Genetic engineering aims to introduce genes that provide resistance to specific diseases, thereby enhancing the organism's ability to combat and overcome infections.

Transgenesis involves the insertion of foreign genes into the genome of an organism, allowing the expression of those genes and conferring specific traits, including disease resistance.

Marker genes are used to identify and select cells that have successfully undergone genetic transformation, allowing researchers to isolate and propagate cells with the desired disease resistance traits.

Cisgenesis involves modifying an organism's own genes, typically by introducing genetic variations or regulatory elements, to enhance disease resistance without introducing foreign genes from other species.

Gene editing techniques like CRISPR-Cas9 allow researchers to target specific genes and make precise changes, enabling the correction of disease-causing mutations or the introduction of disease resistance genes with high accuracy.

Genetic engineering for disease resistance raises ethical considerations related to the potential environmental impact, unintended consequences of genetic modifications, and long-term effects on human health, requiring careful assessment and regulation.

Transgenesis refers to the process of introducing genes from one species into the genome of another species, allowing the recipient organism to express and potentially benefit from the introduced genes.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is the primary regulatory agency in the United States responsible for ensuring the safety and efficacy of genetically modified organisms, including those engineered for disease resistance, before they can be introduced into the market.

Cisgenesis involves modifying an organism's own genes, typically by introducing genetic variations or regulatory elements, without introducing foreign genes from other species.

Cisgenesis involves introducing genes from closely related species into an organism, typically with the aim of enhancing disease resistance or other desirable traits.

Gene editing refers to the process of modifying an organism's genome at specific locations using targeted nucleases, allowing researchers to make precise changes to the DNA sequence.

Transgenesis involves introducing genes from unrelated species into an organism, allowing the recipient organism to express and potentially benefit from the introduced genes.

Genome editing refers to the process of modifying an organism's entire genome, allowing researchers to make broad changes to the genetic makeup of the organism.

Cisgenesis involves introducing genes from the same species into an organism, typically with the aim of enhancing disease resistance or other desirable traits.

Genome editing refers to the process of modifying an organism's genome using homologous recombination, allowing researchers to make precise changes to the DNA sequence.
