“…The term "biotechnology" is derived from two single words: biology and technology [28]. Article 2 of the agreement concerning biological diversity defines biotechnology as "any technological application that uses biological systems and living organisms or their derivatives for the creation or modification of products or processes for specific uses" [29].…”

“…Over several thousand years, the inclusion of desirable characteristics in the cultivar has allowed them to circumvent inclement climates, increase their resistance to pests and disease-causing pathogens, and improve productivity and nutritional value, among other achievements. Continuing the narrative, Verma et al [28] has described how after the domestication of crops (plants) and wild animals, humans began to make other discoveries, such as cheese and curd, which may perhaps be considered the first biotechnological developments because of the fact that enzymes originating from the stomach of a calf are added to sour milk, a process that at the time was not completely understood. Similarly, yeast is one of the earliest-used microbes that humans have exploited for their own benefit.…”

“…While ancient biotechnology can be described as a series of developments, such as the domestication of plants and animals and sometimes accidental discoveries, like bread, cheese and wine, Classical Biotechnology lingers as a transitional period were the fundamental tenets of genetics and molecular biology were established. Modern Biotechnology officially started from the second half of the 20 th century with the development of tools for the manipulation of nucleic acids, cloning and recombinant DNA technology (rDNA), critical for the development of genetic engineering (Verma et al 2011). It is interesting to note that Bioethics and Modern Biotechnology were born around the same time and although there is discrepancy regarding the origin of the word "bioethics" there is agreement it was coined between 1970 and 1972 (Pellegrino 1999;Martensen 2001).…”

“…So, the word biotechnology evokes the use of biological means as a particular technology. The term of biotechnology was coined by the Hungarian agricultural engineer Karl Erkey in 1917; however, the official application (in the format of academic book in Berlin) of this term by K.Erkey is referred to 1919 [1,[5][6][7][8].…”
