Confidence votes 21. Selective breeding has been a way of enhancing preferable genetic qualities in mainly dogs, cats and horses. Often the results can cause mild to severe problems.For example ;breeding for the flat face of the pekingese can cause breathing problems and jaw and teeth deformities.ften the results can cause mild to severe problems.For example ;breeding for the flat face of the pekingese can cause breathing problems and jaw and teeth deformities.
Causes. Researchers have discovered a single gene mutation responsible for progeria. The gene, known as lamin A (LMNA), makes a protein necessary for holding the center (nucleus) of a cell together. When this gene has a defect, researchers believe the genetic mutation makes cells unstable, which appears to lead to progeria's aging process. Unlike many genetic mutations, progeria isn't passed down in families. Rather, the gene change is a chance occurrence that researchers believe affects a single sperm or egg just before conception. Neither parent is a carrier, so the mutations in the child's genes are new (de novo).
