What are the differences between Genetic Engineering and
breeding?
Answer / suman mohajan
It is true that gene transfers also occur in conventional
plant and animal breeding, but these only take place between
individuals of the same species, or, in some cases, between
closely related species. A rice plant can cross with a
different rice species, but not with a walnut. Genetic
engineering is not bound by these limits. So, for example
the genetically engineered Vitamin A rice contains newly
inserted genes from daffodils, viruses and bacteria. As a
result a new form of life has been created.

What is inbreeding ?
In cucumbers normal leaves (N) are dominant to curled leaves (n) and elongated fruit (L) is dominant to spherical fruit and these genes are linked on the same chromosome. If a pure-breeding normal-leaved, elongated fruit cucumber is crossed with a curled-leaved, spherical fruit cucumber, what will be the phenotype of the F1? the phenotypic ratio of the F2?
