Advances in technology have helped many industries, including agriculture. Which agricultural application is most likely to be affected by new advances in DNA technology from the Human Genome Project?

O a researcher who is investigating selective breeding of livestock

O a farmer who is planning a harvest schedule for genetically modified crops

O a plant scientist who is modifying the genetic information of crop plants in a laboratory

O a conservationist who wants to find water sources in drought-prone places

O a researcher who is investigating selective breeding of livestock

Explanation:

The Human Genome Project (HGP) aims at determining the full nucleotide sequence of the human genome, which can be used for the identification, characterization and mapping of the human genes. The livestock genome sequence exhibits a high level of conservation with the genomes of many mammals including humans. In consequence, the information obtained by mapping genes from the HGP can be of help to map livestock genes. The livestock genome mapping projects have greatly been helped by the increasing availability of human and murine genome sequences, which has been used in comparative genomics for the identification of candidate genes involved in animal traits.
