Selective breeding- man controlling nature Enhancing desirable characteristic Eg Belgium blues Fruit is genetically modified- eg orange carrots

Eg chickens- featherless, larger chickens Takes generations to accomplish Breakthrough- identify individual genes Transgenitics- jelly fish and rabbits (rabbits glow green) Salmon growing faster- however they are sterile ( no reproduction in the wild) Pigs- ate 2billion in one year - environmental pollutant (pig poo) with phosphorus runs off into water supply; killing fish - solution- enviro-pig; carry gene allows them to digest phosphorus (human generated gene (not natural)) - when they produce saliva the enzyme that digests phosphorus allowing for more environmentally friendly poo people are cautious- however it is simple, safe and beneficial for the environment scientific modification- controversial? Why it is simply the alteration of an instruction (protein) highly regulated rice- changed to have more vitamin A cloning doesnt guarantee same phenotype just genotype (cows)
