This list includes works featuring breeding programs. These may be classical [[eugenics]] style programs, aimed at wiping out "undesirable" traits, enhancing other traits, or they may be features of an effort to eliminate disease or adapt to particular environments.

These works may explore the ideology behind a breeding program or the consequences thereof. Some take as an assumption certain eugenic or essentialist notions, but others do not. Some works simply use breeding programs as a signal of [[fascism]] or lack of reproductive control, or to play with anxiety about biotechnology.
