Answer 2

Plant breeding is the purposeful manipulation of plant species in order to create desired type of genotypes & phenotypes for specific purposes. The manipulation can involve either controlled pollination, genetic engineering, or both, which is followed by the artificial selection of progeny. In modern plant breeding, use of techniques of molecular biology to select includes, or in the case of genetic modification, to insert, desirable traits into plants. Application of biotechnology or molecular biology is also called molecular breeding.

The most important methods of breeding cross-pollinated species are (1) mass selection; (2) development of hybrid varieties; and (3) development of synthetic varieties.
