The consequences of artificial selection and the advantages and disadvantages of using genetic information in society. Use facts
Zinaida [17]

Artificial selection or selective breeding is a process of selecting the “advantageous” characteristics from the plants or animals by humans and using them for breeding. There are many advantages of artificial selection:

• More agricultural products, gaining higher profit (for example more milk from cow, or more fruit)

• Elimination of diseases by identifying the plants/animals with disease

• Production of superior breed.

On the other hand, negative effects might also occur, so the disadvantages of artificial selection are:

• Genetic mutations  

• Loss of genes

• Diseases

All of these negative impacts are connected and often arise from the breeding of desirable organisms.
