Rare Breeds Genetic Number Individuals Describe Reduce Biodiversity

This card explains how rare breeds reduce genetic biodiversity: they are produced through selective breeding, and due to their unpopularity, they have fewer individuals, leading to reduced genetic diversity.

Bu kart, nadir ırkların genetik biyoçeşitliliği nasıl azalttığını açıklar: nadir ırklar seçici yetiştirme yoluyla üretilir ve popüler olmadıklarından birey sayıları azdır, bu da genetik çeşitliliği düşürür.

Front Describe how rare breeds reduce genetic biodiversity.
Back Rare breeds & biodiversity:
  • They have been produced domestically using selective breeding
  • Their characteristics become unpopular so number of individuals falls
  • Small number of individuals with low genetic diversity - gets even lower
