  1. Selective Breeding Genetic Engineering

  2. Selective Breeding • the traditional method for improving crops and livestock, such as increasing disease resistance.

  3. Genetic Engineering • a faster way to breed • transplants genes for a desired characteristic into an organism.

  4. Steps to Selective Breeding • Decide which characteristics are important • Choose parents that show these characteristics • Select the best offspring from parents to breed the next generation • Repeat the process continuously
