To make transgenic plants, DNA gets put into the tissue culture cells, by one of several methods: One method is the gene gun: tiny gold particles are coated with the DNA, and then shot at high speed into the cells. The gold particles penetrate the cell wall and membrane. Some end up in the nucleus, ...
