Question

Difference between traditional hybridization and Genetic engineering

Answer 1

Explanation:

Explanation:Conventional breeding relies on mixing characteristics from different populations within a species and then selecting from a plants natural complement of genetic elements. However genetic engineering relies on inserting genetic elements, and they end up in random locations, which can disrupt complex gene interactions.

A genetic hybrid would therefore carry two different alleles of the same gene

Answer 2

Explanation:

• Genetic engineering is not just an extension of conventional breeding. In fact, it differs profoundly. As a general rule, conventional breeding develops new plant varieties by the process of selection, and seeks to achieve expression of genetic material which is already present within a species. (There are exceptions, which include species hybridization, wide crosses and horizontal gene transfer, but they are limited, and do not change the overall conclusion, as discussed later.) Conventional breeding employs processes that occur in nature, such as sexual and asexual reproduction.

• Traditional hybridisation means desired cross . In desired cross , sometimes variation may occur like incomplete dominance or the desired organism with desired features may not be achieved.
