Selective breeding, also known as artificial selection, is the process by which humans intentionally choose specific animals or plants with desirable traits to reproduce, thereby enhancing those traits in future generations. This occurs by mating individuals that exhibit the preferred characteristics, such as size, color, or disease resistance. Over time, this practice can lead to significant changes in the genetic makeup of a population, resulting in enhanced qualities in domesticated species. Selective breeding is commonly used in agriculture, animal husbandry, and horticulture.
