What are some benefits for genetic engineering in crop plants?

i don't know help me please so i can get a good grademaybe you should look in the TEXTBOOK! that's what I did. it should be on page 341 of your text book. read the defention. its really simple, genetic engineering is messing with the DNA to improve it. so the benefits of engineering plants genetically could be making them healthier, or to grow faster and to be more efficient. don't take that answer it might not be right, hope that helped. -Hannah

Hi, my answer might be beneficial to this question:

"It may take many generations of breeding for a trait to become homozygous and consistently expressed in the population. Genetic engineering is a faster and more reliable method for increasing the frequency of a specific allele in a population."

I received this answer from page 341 in my Glencoe Biology textbook.

Good luck on your journey to learning!
