Solution

Plant breeding programmes are the examples of artificial selection.

Explanation:

Plant breeding involves the purposeful selection and crossing of plants with desirable traits to develop superior varieties that are better suited for cultivation, have higher yields, or are disease-resistant. This process is a form of artificial selection, where humans intentionally select for specific characteristics, as opposed to natural selection which occurs without human intervention.
