RE: Witch finger, teardrop -- GMO?
Not really genetic modification, genetic modification usually implies transferring genes that are not innate to that species to that species, while selective breeding is enhancing the existing genes of a particular trait.
Hypothetical example (ignore all reality)
transferring chlorophyll genes from plants to us and make our skin green = genetic modification
naturally found new skin color human and cross breed with others to make skin green = selective breeding
Got it!! Thank you for the explanation!!
