Animal husbandry and plant breeding programmes are the exmples of artificil selection. The artifical selection is the modification of species by selective breeding. Animals or plants with desirable characterstics are interbred with the aim of altering the genotype and producing a new strain of the organism for a specific purpose. Traditional breeding techniques have been supplemented by more recent methods of genetic engineering. genetic testing and embryo methods of genetic engineering, genetic testing and embryo manipulation. Sequencing of genomes of commercially important animals and plant species has enabled the inheritance of desired genes to be monitored directly by molecular methods.
