Transgene Defined
A foreign piece of DNA that has been inserted into the germ line of an organism. Since germ cells give rise to the reproductive cells, an organism that contains a transgene will pass it down to all of its descendents. An organism that contains a transgene is known as "transgenic."

- Glowing Monkeys Make More Glowing Monkeys the Old-Fashioned Way | Wired Science | Wired.com: The first genetically modified primates that can pass their modifications to their offpsring have been created by Japanese scientists. The marmosets, pictured above, express a green fluorescent protein in their skin. The gene for producing the glow was delivered to the first marmoset embryos via a modified virus. But now that modification method could become unnecessary. One male marmoset, number 666, fathered a child (pictured at right) that also contained the transgenes.
