A note from Wikipedia
A genetically modified organism (GMO) is an organism
whose genetic material has been altered using genetic engineering
techniques. Organisms that have been genetically modified include
micro-organisms such as bacteria and yeast, insects, plants, fish,
and mammals. GMOs are the source of genetically modified foods,
and are also widely used in scientific research and to produce goods
other than food. The term GMO is very close to the technical legal
term, 'living modified organism' defined in the Cartagena Protocol
on Biosafety, which regulates international trade in living GMOs
(specifically, "any living organism that possesses a novel
combination of genetic material obtained through the use of modern
biotechnology").
This article focuses on what organisms have been genetically engineered,
and for what purposes. The article on genetic engineering focuses
on the history and methods of genetic engineering, and on applications
of genetic engineering and of GMOs. Both articles cover much of
the same ground but with different organizations (sorted by organism
in this article; sorted by application in the other). There are
separate articles on genetically modified crops, genetically modified
food, regulation of the release of genetic modified organisms, and
controversies.
