DESCRIPTION
The recent development in biotechnology have led to rapid progress in understanding the genetic basis of living organisms, and the ability to develop products and processes useful to human and animal health, food and agriculture,a nd industry. In agriculture, there is increasing use of biotechnology for genetic mapping and marker-assisted selected to aid more precise and rapid development of new strains of improved crops and livestock. Biotechnology applications such as tissue culture and micro-propagation are being used for the rapid multiplication of disease-free plating materials.
