| plants, transgenic | Plants into which genetic material from another species has been transferred. The technique most frequently applied makes use of a natural plant-directed gene vector, the gram-negative soil bacterium agrobacterium tumefaciens. A second system more analogous to those used for transforming mammalian cell lines is the direct transfer of DNA into plant protoplasts, for example by electroporation or polyethylene glycol treatment.

| plants | Multicellular, eukaryotic life forms of the kingdom plantae. They are characterised by a mainly photosynthetic mode of nutrition; essentially unlimited growth at localised regions of cell divisions (meristems); cellulose within cells providing rigidity; the absence of organs of locomotion; absense of nervous and sensory systems; and an alteration of haploid and diploid generations. (12 Dec 1998) |

| plants, edible | An organism of the vegetable kingdom suitable by nature for use as a food, especially by human beings. Not all parts of any given plant are edible but all parts of edible plants have been known to figure as raw or cooked food: leaves, roots, tubers, stems, seeds, buds, fruits, and flowers. The most commonly edible parts of plants are fruit, usually sweet, fleshy, and succulent. Most edible plants are commonly cultivated for their nutritional value and are referred to as vegetables.

| plants, medicinal | Plants whose roots, leaves, seeds, bark, or other constituent possess therapeutic, tonic, purgative, or other pharmacologic activity when administered to higher animals. (12 Dec 1998) |
| plants, toxic | Plants or plant parts which are harmful to man or other animals. (12 Dec 1998) |
| power plants | Units that convert some form of energy into electrical energy, such as hydroelectric or steam-generating stations, diesel-electric engines in locomotives, or nuclear power plants. (12 Dec 1998) |
| animals, transgenic | Animals, or the offspring of such animals, into which cloned genetic material has been experimentally transferred by microinjection of foreign DNA, either directly or into embryos or differentiated cell types. Transgenic rabbits, mice, fish, xenopus, sheep, pigs, and chickens have been produced using genes of sea urchins, candida, drosophila, and mice. (12 Dec 1998) |
| mice, transgenic | Laboratory mice that have been produced from a genetically manipulated egg or embryo. The technique involves microinjection of foreign DNA fragments into the nucleus of the fertilised egg and transferring it into the uterus of a foster mother mouse. The inserted gene becomes integrated into every cell and tissue of the developing mouse, including its germ line cells. (12 Dec 1998) |
| transgenic | <molecular biology> This term describes an organism that has had genes from another organism put into its genome through recombinant DNA techniques. Origin: Gr. Gennan = to produce (09 Oct 1997) |
| transgenic animal | Genetically engineered animalor offspring of genetically engineeredanimals. The transgenic animal usually contains material from at leaseone unrelated organism, such as from a virus, plant, or other animal. (09 Oct 1997) |
| transgenic disease models | Animals that have been created to acquire particular human diseases. (14 Nov 1997) |
| transgenic mice | Mice that have a piece of foreign lincor DNA integrated into their genome. (05 Mar 2000) |
| transgenic organism | <molecular biology> Organisms that have integrated foreign DNA into their germ line as a result of the experimental introduction of DNA. Recombinant DNA techniques are commonly used to produce a transgenic organism. (13 Nov 1997) |
| transgenic plant | Genetically engineered plantor offspring of genetically engineered plants. The transgenic plant usually contains material from at least one unrelated organisms, such as from a virus, animal, or other plant. (09 Oct 1997) |
