(Ch. 13) Selective breeding • allowing animals with desired

characteristics to produce the next generation

• Pass on the desired trait

• Horses, cats, farm animals

• Crops (disease-resistant potato from Luther Burbank)

Hybridization

• crossing dissimilar individuals to bring together the best of both organisms

• Hybrids are hardier than parents

• In the potato-disease resistance x food production (Burbank potato)

Inbreeding

• The continued breeding of individuals with similar characteristics

• Keep desired characteristics of a line of organisms

• The cross can bring together 2 recessive alleles for a genetic defect-BAD!

Inducing Mutations• Increases the genetic variation

in a population• Mutations are the ultimate

source of genetic variability• Occur spontaneously• Use of radiation, chemicals• Hard to get desired mutants

New Bacteria• Hundreds of useful bacterial strains have been produced

• Bacteria can even digest oil

Page 10: Chapter 13 Genetic Engineering. (Ch. 13) Selective breeding allowing animals with desired characteristics to produce the next generation Pass on the

New Kinds of Plants• polyploid – chromosomes do

not separate during meiosis• Use drugs that prevent

chromosome separation • Plants are stronger, bigger

than diploid• Polyploidy fatal in animals

Manipulating DNA• DNA is removed from the cell

• Restriction enzymes cut the DNA

• Gel electrophoresis separates the DNA

• Used to compare genes or locate a gene out of thousands in the genome

Recombinant DNA• DNA molecules made by combining DNA from different

sources

Transgenic Organisms

• Contain genes from other species

• Microorganisms – insulin, growth hormone, clotting factor

• In the future – may help fight cancer

Transgenic Animals/Plants• Used to study genes and improve

food supply

• Study immune system and effects of disease

• Extra copies of growth hormone- grow faster and produce leaner meat

• Working on chickens

• GM foods – produce natural insecticide

• Resistant to weed-killing chemicals

• May be able to produce human antibodies to fight disease

• Rice plant contains vitamin A

Cloning

• Cloned bacteria

• Dolly

• Ethical and moral issues
