In this essay we will discuss about the outbreeding which is a negative genetic assortative mating. When a mating involves individuals that are more distantly related than the average of the selected group, it is classified as outcrossing or outbreeding which is a negative genetic assortative mating. Outbreeding involves crossing individuals belonging to different families or crossing different inbred varieties [...]
Geneticists use following two methods for sequencing the genomes: 1. Clone-by-clone Method 2. Shotgun Cloning. Method # 1. Clone-by-Clone Method: This method was the first to be developed. It begins with the construction of genomic libraries of restriction fragments covering all the genomic DNA (or genomic clones) of an organism. By using genetic markers, overlapping clones are assembled into genetic [...]
Euthenics is a branch of applied genetics under which are studied the methods of providing, the best environmental conditions to 'nurture' to ensure complete expression of all eugenic traits in the developing children. Euthenics recommends the following methods to ensure maximum expression of genes of superior traits in the children. 1. Selection of Children with Superior Traits: The primary requirement [...]
