Can plants that don't reproduce by seed be genetically engineered?
Yes. Most genetic engineering on plants doesn’t even involve making seeds. Plants are easy to grow in cultures unlike animals. A small cutting can be modified, grown in a petri dish, and then triggered to mature into a plant with hormones. Plant tissue culture - Wikipedia
My favorite method of plant modification was the gene gun! It literately used a 22 caliber shell to fire DNA into plants. Gene gun - Wikipedia
