Difference between Aedes aegypti and Genetically modified organism

Aedes aegypti vs. Genetically modified organism

Aedes aegypti, the yellow fever mosquito, is a mosquito that can spread dengue fever, chikungunya, Zika fever, Mayaro and yellow fever viruses, and other disease agents. A genetically modified organism (GMO) is any organism whose genetic material has been altered using genetic engineering techniques (i.e., a genetically engineered organism).

Similarities between Aedes aegypti and Genetically modified organism

Aedes aegypti and Genetically modified organism have 10 things in common (in Unionpedia): Dengue fever, DNA, Drosophila melanogaster, Food and Drug Administration, Genetically modified organism, Genome, J. Craig Venter Institute, Oxitec, Protein, Zika virus.

Dengue fever

Dengue fever is a mosquito-borne tropical disease caused by the dengue virus.
