One of the breeding techniques useful to eliminate harmful recessive genes by selection is

  • Artificial insemination

  • Outbreeding

  • Inbreeding

Solution

C.

Inbreeding

When breeding is done between animals of the same breed for 4-6 generations, it is called inbreeding. Inbreeding is necessary if we want to develop a pure line of any animal. It exposes harmful recessive genes that are eliminated by selection. It also helps the accumulation of superior genes and the elimination of less desirable genes.
