Genetic tools encompass the range of molecular techniques—such as gene editing, transformation systems, and molecular markers—used to identify, manipulate, and study genes within an organism's genome. In plant science, these tools are essential for uncovering the functions of specific genes, accelerating breeding programs, and engineering desirable traits like disease resistance or improved yield. By enabling precise manipulation of genetic material, they drive advances in crop improvement and deepen our understanding of fundamental plant biology.
