Answer:

True.

Step-by-step explanation:

Artificial selection is also known as selective breeding and it is a process that involves humans (breeders) selecting the animal or plant with desirable traits in order to reproduce favorable offspring having phenotypic traits.

This ultimately implies that, when farmers or breeders select plants having desirable traits for breeding, it avails them the opportunity of changing the appearance or phenotype of a crop over time such as disease resistance, taste, size, etc.
