Answer:

molecular breeding accelerates the times for genetic improvement

Explanation:

Molecular breeding refers to the techniques used in molecular biology to improve phenotypic features in plants and animals of agronomic and economic interest. Molecular breeding involves many diverse molecular techniques which include, among others, selection assisted by molecular markers (MAS), genome editing techniques (e.g., the CRISPR-Cas genome editing system), quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping, gene introgression assisted by markers, etc. These techniques can dramatically accelerate breeding programs aimed at improving plant/animal traits and, therefore, they have a fundamental advantage with respect to conventional breeding methods.
