A single gene determines if Chinese Shar-Peis will have normal skin or excessively wrinkled skin. Two Shar-Peis that differ in skin type have different alleles. Breeding Shar-Peis so that they are more likely to have wrinkled skin is an example of artificial selection. It requires traits that are inherited from parents.
