Such a process is far more straightforward than the parallel process in animal cells, which cannot be cloned into full-grown adults. Therefore, the results of any genetic manipulation are usually easier to examine in plants than in animals. ... Not all aspects of the genetic manipulation of plant cells are readily accomplished.

Cloning may make possible some extraordinary advances in the science of genetic engineering. ... Gregor Mendel helped to establish the rules of genetics through his work selectively breeding plants in the 1800's. Selective Breeding has worked well for engineering animals and plants, but it can take whole human lifetimes to...

It is little more than a revision, ... Today plants and animals with genes taken from completely unrelated species are being engineered in the laboratories of biotechnology companies and released into the environment. Proponents of genetic engineering claim that it is very much in continuity with older breeding practices.
