That's one thing GMO means. It can also mean genetically modified species that are resistant to a specific herbicide. For example, Round-up ready crops.
That doesn't necessarily mean breeds that have been genetically altered are bad or worse than ones bred over time, but it's incorrect to say that GMO means breeding.
