Genetically modified organisms (GMOs) have altered their genomes in different ways in order to be resistant to both biotic (e.g., insect pests) and abiotic (e.g., drought) stress conditions
Explanation:
A genetically modified organism (GMO) is any organism, i.e., plant, animal, bacterium, etc., whose DNA has been altered by genetic engineering. TheGMO crops can exhibit resistance to insect pests in order to increase their agronomic yields (as well as resistance to other biotic and abiotic stresses). It is for that reason that GMO crops are widely used in many countries. A commercially available GMO crop is <em>Bt</em> corn, which is a genetically engineered maize that expresses proteins from the bacterium <em>Bacillus thuringiensis</em> (<em>Bt</em>), which are poisonous to several insect pest species.
