Genetically engineered plants are generated in laboratory by altering their genetic makeup. This is done by adding one or more genes to a plant’s genome by

1. Biolistic method or Agrobacterium tumefaciens mediated transformation
2. DNA injection or heat shock method
3. Fusing liposomes to intact plant cells
4. Bacillus thuringiensis mediated transformation
