Diabetes mellitus (Diabetes) is a genetic disease that is due to single gene mutation. If we transfer that gene into the human genome through gene therapy or genetic engineering, we can control Diabetes mellitus but quite difficult and expensive except we transfer that gene into the wheat (staple food for more than 70% population of the world) genome. If successful in producing transgenic wheat with Diabetes mellitus gene then we can control disease manually, cheaply and efficiently without any harmful effect of medicines or vaccinations; insulin produced by bacteria through genetic engineering. It is concluded that the production of transgenic wheat for Diabetes mellitus is very important for good and healthy life of nations.
