Types of GMOs. GMO varieties exist for crops such as alfalfa, canola, corn, cotton, papaya, rice, soybean, sugar beet, summer squash, and tobacco. Currently, 95% of U.S. soybean and 90% of U.S. corn is genetically modified.
A genetically modified organism is any organism whose genetic material has been altered using genetic engineering techniques. GMOs are used to produce many medications and genetically modified foods and are widely used in scientific research and the production of other goods. 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. A more specifically defined type of GMO is a transgenic organism.. This is an organism whose genetic makeup has been altered by the addition of genetic material from an unrelated organism.
