This method primarily involves a combination of mating and selection of animals with improved genetic traits to create the desired character in animals.  Possible manipulation at the genetic level to get the desired character in animals is known as Transgenesis . Transgenesis refers to the phenomenon of the introduction of exogenous DNA into the genome to create to maintain a stable heritable character. Transgenic animals with new heritable characteristics are known as Genetically Engineered or Genetically Modif
