Crossbreeding: Is it Evolution?

The reverberating evolution of man that lead us into a present world of possibilities and outcomes, where man transcended with the help of science to preserve and nurture biodiversity, that gave way to crossbreeding. Mostly seen in animals and plants from the very beginning of human civilisation, crossbreeding led to the detainment of species, an offspring with the traits of both lineages and Heterosis (hybrid vigor); crosses between different species (liger-lion and tiger).

Where plant breeding is commonly and successfully carried out around the world, animal cross breeding may initiate a few concerns. Poor crossbreeding would result in inferior quality or dilute a purebred gene pool to the point of extinction of a given breed of animal. Further malpractices would lead to unhealthy experimentation; such that of a human and chimpanzee hybrid (humanzee).

Being a feasible hypothetical concept, sharing 95% of their DNA sequence and 99% of coding DNA sequences, leading to contested speculation that a hybrid is possible, a project if carried out, will be a moral concern.

Crossbreeding at present being quite popular and being used commercially, with emergence of many prosperous out-breeds and ensured biodiversity, paves way to a much coruscating future with the aid of right ways and intentions.
