Genetic techniques refer to a set of methods and procedures used in biotechnology for manipulating genes, gene expression or altering hereditary traits. These techniques involve various molecular biology tools such as DNA sequencing, PCR (polymerase chain reaction), CRISPR-Cas9 system, gene editing software, etc., which are used to study and manipulate the genetic material of living organisms. Genetic engineering is a field that uses these techniques to develop or modify products and processes for specific purposes such as improving crop yields, creating new medicines, or producing biofuels. Overall, genetic techniques have revolutionized our understanding of biology and continue to shape the future of science and medicine.
