Solution

The correct option is A Recombinant DNA technology
To produce a genetically modified (GM) plant, new DNA is transferred into plant cells. Usually, the cells are then grown in tissue culture where they develop into plants. The seeds produced by these plants will inherit the new DNA. This technique is called recombinant DNA technology.
So the correct answer is option A.
