Abstract

From a human welfare standpoint, the greatest benefits of biotechnology will surely be derived from the adoption of improved Biotechnology procedures that may be defined as a technology based on biological systems – plants, animals and microbes or parts of it (cell, tissue, gene or DNA). Pakistan would have to focus on genetically modified and hybrid crops to tap true potential of agricultural productivity in the country in the shortest possible time through biotechnology.
