A) SELECTIVE (ARTIFICIAL BREEDING) Definition: Selective breeding is when the plants/animals from the existing stock that have the characteristics they want are selected and are allowed to breed. The offspring will hopefully display the characteristics which are required. The best offspring are then bred from‚ until all offspring display the characteristics that are wanted. This leads to new breeds of animal being produced. Uses: * High yielding crops‚ such as wheat are produced by collecting

effects were first felt in farmers fields across India‚ Mexico‚ and Philippines. Since then‚ improving crop germplasm and the development of new varieties through well focused crop breeding programmers have been extended too many other food and feed crops in developing countries. It is reasonable to assume that plant breeding‚ howsoever primitive‚ began when man first chose certain plants for cultivation; this began 10‚000 years ago when main is believed to have started agriculture.
