			'''Abbrevition for Genetically Modified'''

	A [[w:GMO]] is an artificially [[w:genetic modification\|engineered]] living organism, whose genome has been modified. Modern biotechnological techniques allow to pick up one or several genes on one organism (bacteria, virus, animal, plant) to insert it in another organism. The technique used is different from traditional breeding, as it may create new organisms previously unknown in nature and as it allows crossing between species.
