FAQ About Indoor Plant Genetic Traits and Modifications

Biotechnology employs various techniques to modify genetic traits in indoor plants, including CRISPR/Cas9 gene-editing, DNA cloning, and traditional selective breeding. These methods allow scientists to make precise changes to a plant’s genetic makeup, introducing new traits or enhancing existing ones. Biotechnology can help develop plants with enhanced growth patterns, or aesthetic qualities, or improved resistance to environmental stresses such as low light or water scarcity.
