Yes actually it does.
I've put up my sources, put up yours.
If it's Natural News or anything like that this conversation will end.
In the process of selective breeding, first the individuals with specified desirable characteristics should be carefully selected. Then the controlled mating should be done in order to obtain a population with the desired characteristics. This is very effective if the two verities have homozygous genotypes. Hybrid between two separate species is known as interspecific hybrids while hybrid between separate varieties of the same species is known as intraspecific hybrids.
• Natural breeding takes place in selective breeding while artificial breeding takes place in genetic engineering. In the selective breeding, it only selects the parents considering their traits that allow them to breed on their own, but in genetic engineering, the genes are being transferred.
• To make GM plants or animals, the genes must be isolated from different organisms. This step does not take place in selective breeding.
Our modern franken foods however have had foreign genes literally injected into them
can you explain ?

I'll admit I refuse to buy GM food because I consider possible unknown long term effects which science may not know yet.
I've got nothing to support that except for gut instinct.
