| Initially, the only methods available were artificial selection or hybridization. |
|
| Domestication and artificial selection of livestock have made farm animals dependent on humans. |
|
| One can note that the fur of truly longhaired cats, such as Persians, is, most probably a product of a long artificial selection. |
|
| Perhaps a study of the artificial selection of livestock would provide a clue. |
|
| However, genetic differentiations may also be due to artificial selection, since B. davidii was cultivated as an ornamental plant. |
|
| Following on from The Blind Watchmaker it deploys computer models of artificial selection. |
|
| Others argued that the artificial selection of eugenics should amplify natural selection in eliminating weaklings from the Italian population. |
|
| The results of artificial selection are impressive. |
|
| Stabilizing selection is often noticeable after artificial selection. |
|
| The latter were subjected to intense artificial selection. |
|
| As a matter of fact the kind of artificial selection applied to our animals, also to pet animals, is very much like the type of natural selection during environmental catastrophes. |
|
| In artificial selection within small population with unknown genotype it is very difficult to predict selection outcome and, accordingly, difficult to achieve desired stable changes in the phenotype. |
|
| He later called his theory natural selection, an analogy with what he termed the artificial selection of selective breeding. |
|
| These inherited traits result from a combination of natural crosses and artificial selection methods. |
|
| We know little about the role of these constraints on crop domestication, nor how artificial selection can escape them. |
|
| For most of history, artificial selection on large herbivores was probably weak, Marshall said. |
|
| Motivated by these approaches, we aimed to use selective sweeps to detect markers associated with artificial selection for racing performance in Thoroughbreds. |
|
| In computer science, simulations of evolution using evolutionary algorithms and artificial life started in the 1960s and were extended with simulation of artificial selection. |
|
| Between 1835 and 1837, the zoologist Edward Blyth worked on the area of variation, artificial selection, and how a similar process occurs in nature. |
|
| Artificial selection is purposive where natural selection is not, though biologists often use teleological language to describe it. |
|
|
|
| Artificial selection is the intentional selection of traits in a population of organisms. |
