Floriculturist. Floriculture is the study of flowers. On an added note - botany is the scientific study of plants; horticulture is the art or practice of garden cultivation and management. Arboriculture is the cultivation of trees and shrubs. Olericulture is the cultivation of vegetables. Viticulture is the cultivation of grapevines.

There are three major types of genetics: human genetics, genetics of model organisms, and genetics of domesticated species. Obviously, in human genetics you are not going to be called on to kill people. Rather, human genetics mostly involves research into genetic diseases and counseling of families in which those diseases occur. Animal research may be involved in studying a human disease gene after the gene has been identified, but technically that is not genetics = the genetics involves mapping and identifying the gene. Model organisms are species that scientists work with to study things that can’t be studied in humans. The common model organisms for genetics are bacteria, yeast (single celled fungi), Arabadopsis (a small mustard plant), C. elegans (an invisible 1 mm nematode worm), Drosophila (a 2 mm fruit fly), and mice (10 cm mammals). The genetics of domesticated species of animals and plants generally involves either breeding for aesthetics (like show dogs, horses, and flowers) or breeding to improve the useful traits (like better beef or more rice and grain production with less pesticides and better nutrition). As you can see from these brief descriptions, there are many routes you can take to become a geneticist who does not kill animals, or who kills only lower animals like tiny worms and flies. Of course, geneticists are biologists, and so in your training it is likely that you would face either dissections or experiments on live animals. You could even minimize that, however, by studying plant physiology or a similar subject in college, and then becoming a plant, yeast or bacterial geneticist. If you are really interested in genetics as a career, you will also need to think about what type of job you want to do and how much education you are willing to endure. People can work as technicians with college degrees, serious animal breeders with veterinary training, counselors with Master’s level training, scientists with Ph.D.s, or medical doctors following medical school and specialized training. --- Edit: Another form of genetics is to study the genetics of wild populations in order to further conservation efforts and to better understand nature. Scientists study animals, plants, and even microorganisms and bacteria in this manner.

A horticulturist should probably be thrown in there too. They study flowering plants like strawberries, fruit trees and ornamental plants.
