Plants such as an infertile cotton strain have been made in laboratories using GURT. [1]Genetic use restriction technology (GURT), also known as terminator technology or suicide seeds, is designed to restrict access to "genetic materials and their associated phenotypic traits."
Agrobacterium naturally inserts DNA into plants from its Ti plasmid, and scientists use this to insert genes of interest into various plants. The transformed plants were regenerated and analyzed for the presence of the gene through Southern blotting. The plants' progeny were also analyzed to identify lines segregating in a Mendelian fashion. [5]
Creating genetically modified food is a multi-step process. The first step is to identify a useful gene from another organism that you would like to add. The gene can be taken from a cell [72] or artificially synthesised, [73] and then combined with other genetic elements, including a promoter and terminator region and a selectable marker. [74]

Plant viruses are a cause of around half of the plant diseases emerging worldwide, and an estimated 10–15% of losses in crop yields. [162] Papaya, potatoes, and squash have been engineered to resist viral pathogens such as cucumber mosaic virus which, despite its name, infects a wide variety of plants.
