Genetic engineering vs Traditional breeding

Key differences between the two methods

genetic engineering

traditional breeding

Selects traits through generations of crossing

Edits specific genes with pinpoint accuracy

Multiple generations needed for trait stability

One generation can show desired result

Uses genes from same species only

Uses genes from any living organism

genetic engineering

traditional breeding

Broader changes, more unintended traits possible

Precise changes with fewer off-target effects

Widely accepted, no GMO label required

Heavily regulated, often called “GMO” crops
