Types of Plant Breeding
There are the following different types of plant breeding:
Backcrossing
In this, a plant with desired traits is crossed with a plant that does not have the desired traits but has several other traits.
Inbreeding
In this, self-fertilization occurs. The progeny produced is the same generation after generation. This helps to preserve the original traits.
Hybrid Breeding
In this, two different breeds are crossed to produce the offspring that is more productive than the parents.
Mutation Breeding
The mutations in plant genes result in new varieties. Mutations can also be induced in plants by exposing them to chemicals and radiation.
Genetic Engineering
Genetic engineering helps in producing crops with desirable traits by inserting the gene of interest within the crop DNA. Such crops are known as genetically modified crops.
