Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) This animation depicts the process of PCR. Each component involved in the process is outlined and described in this animation. 
ECB Lifecycle This animation goes through the life cycle of the European corn borer and how Bt affects the insect.  
Herbicide Resistance Illustrates how selection for herbicide resistance occurs. 
Flower Parts This animation illustrates the botanical parts of flower structures. 
Asteraceae Flowers This animation describes and illustrates the different types of flowers found in the family Asteraceae. 
Taqman The Taqman probe detection system used in real time PCR (also known as quantitative PCR) is illustrated in this animation. One application of this method is use in GMO detection. 
Flower structures, Plant Breeding, Cross Pollination, Making Crosses This animations illustrates the structures of a flower, plant breeding, cross pollination and making crosses. 
Lateral Flow Strip Test This animation illustrates the concepts of protein detection using the lateral flow strip method. This method is simliar to ELISA and is utilized in detecting GMOs, among other applications.
