- Drosophila [r]: Flies of the family Drosophilidae, having larvae that feed on ripening or fermenting fruits and vegetables, especially the common species Drosophila melanogaster, often used in genetic research. [e]
- Escherichia coli [r]: A flagellated rod-shaped bacterium; a major species in the lower intestines of mammals. [e]
- Gene [r]: The functional unit of heredity. [e]
- Horizontal gene transfer in plants [r]: Any process in which an organism transfers genetic material (i.e. DNA) to another cell that is not its cellular offspring, as distinct from vertical gene transfer where genes are inherited from parents or ancestors in a lineage of cellular organisms. [e]
- Mobile DNA [r]: Blocks of DNA that are able to move and insert into new locations throughout the genome without needing DNA sequence similarity or requiring the process of homologous recombination to enable movement. [e]
- Mutation [r]: Changes to the DNA sequence that cause new genetic variation. [e]
- Protein [r]: A polymer of amino acids; basic building block of living systems. [e]
- Transgenic plant [r]: Plants that have been genetically modified by inserting genes directly into a single plant cell, from a different species. [e]
- Transposon [r]: Blocks of conserved DNA that can occasionally move to different positions within the chromosomes of a cell. [e]
