A shift in a demand or supply curve occurs when a good's quantity demanded or supplied changes even though price remains the same. So a shift to the right would mean the good quantity suppled has increased even the the price is still the same.

What is the difference between directional and disruptive selection?

I'm not sure what "stabilizing directional" selection is, but if you get out a bell curve graph... Stabilizing selection tends to select for individuals around the average, or mean, of a population, which technically makes the curve steeper. Directional selection shifts the average in one direction (shifts the whole curve in one direction). Disruptive selection creates two new averages, which means it splits the one curve into two, smaller, separate curves.

Leftward shift in the supply curve?

A leftward shift in the supply curve would mean that some outside (Macro-economic) or inside (Micro-economic) event occurred that caused the supplier of the good to not be willing to make as many at a lower price. The price of the good/service will increase. The new price will be at the new (higher) intersect of the supply and demand curves (equilibrium).
