Evolution: Artificial Selection

1. Evolution: Artificial Selection

Learning Objective
11.2.5.1 Explore ways to improve agricultural plants and animals using the methods of breeding.
Success Criteria
1.
Define hybrid, inbreeding and outbreeding
2.
Identify two plants and explain how they have been bred to increase certain traits (mustard plant –
cauliflower – flowers, and stems celery)
3.
Identify two animals and explain how they have been bred to increase certain traits (cow – milk,
meat)

8. Non-Random Mating – small population have less gene flow, less randomness to mate, this can cause a decrease in frequency of

allele in a population.
-Only certain individual organisms
can mate
-
gene pool is small due to
Random
these organisms producing
Mating
more offspring with only their
genes
Non- Random
Mating
evolutionary effects
-less alleles in a population gene
pool
-less chance for evolutionary
change
-more chance of extinction

Hybridization
Inbreeding
is the process of crossing genetically
different individuals to produce offspring
is the crossing of two closely related
parents (genetically the same), or close
relatives, who share very similar alleles.
• increases the heterozygous alleles
• two different species are involved
• Alleles of offspring are much different
that their parents
• Less probability of genetic mutations
• Post-zygotic hybrid problems
• increases the amount of homozygous
alleles.
• One species involved
• Alleles of offspring are very similar to
parents
• High probability of genetic mutations
Outbreeding
is the crossing of two parents that are not related and have very different alleles.
• increases the amount of heterozygous alleles.
• One species involved
• Alleles of offspring are very different to parents
• Low probability of genetic mutations

10. Steps of Artificial Selection

1. Humans decide trait or characteristic of interest.
2. Breed the choices together
3. Choose offspring with ideal characteristics to
mate
4. Repeat for many generations
5. The allelic frequency for the characteristic
increases.
6. Decide what type of selection is occurring in the
population
• Selective, Directional, Disruptive

13. Artificial Selection – hybrid Banana’s that have been bred until they have no seeds. All bananas are CLONES! Low genetic

variation less success…..
In contrast to natural
selection artificial selection
is intentional breeding or organisms for
certain favorable traits, or combination
of traits.

14.

No Isolation – sterile hybrid is formed

15.

These were all created by Artificial Selection
From this plant.
Wild mustard
Sinapis arvensis
HOW?

16.

17.

Artificial
Broccoli: Flower
development is
suppressed
Selection
Cabbage: selection for
the terminal bud (head
only forms)
Cauliflower: flowers
are sterile
In contrast to natural selection this is the
intentional breeding or organisms for
certain favorable traits, or ombination of
traits.
Kale: selection is for
leaves only
Undomesticated
banana-lots of
seeds compared
to artificially
selected with
little to no seeds

Most of these VARIATIONS of canis lupus
familiaris are created through artificial selection

19.

Animal Articial Selection
Notice any differences?

20.

21. Belgian Blue cattle ... they have a mutation that creates twice the muscle tissue. Calves are so big that Caesarian births are

standard.

22.

1. How as artificial selection improved these cows?
2. Is it an improvement that the cow would be ‘selected’ for if
released into the wild?
3. Reproductive success?

23.

What trait
was
artificially
selected for
in this cow?

24.

Success Criteria
1. Define hybrid, inbreeding and outbreeding
2. Identify two plants and explain how they
have been bred to increase certain traits
(mustard plant , corn)
3. Identify two animals and explain how they
have been bred to increase certain traits (cow –
milk, meat)

Make 1-2 slide presentation that clearly
investigates artificial selection
You are investigating inbreeding and hybrids as method of artificial
selection, not genetic engineering or Genetically Modified
Organisms (GMO)
Criteria
√ Name the trait that was selected.
√ Tell why the trait was selected
√ Clear use of terminology explaining the mechanism.
√ Picture of before artificial selection and after artificial
selection.

Work shows understanding of differences between the two
types of artificial selection.
