(característica) que por subsecuentes generaciones quede eliminada


Explanation:
Es algo de genética y dinámica de poblaciones. Si hay una característica que se desea eliminar, si se meten individuos que no la tienen en cruzas y generaciones siguientes la característica adversa quedará eliminada.

Reference

Reference information:
In an unsuccessful effort topreventfree fraternization between white men
and women, Aboriginal reserves became "prohibited areas" and supply of alcohol
to Aborigines was prohibited. In the Northern Territory and more remote regions
of Australia during the 20th century, it was thought thatthe "coloured" population
would swamp the small white population, threatening the national aspirations of
White Australia. In the Northern Territory in 1936, cohabitation between white
men and Aboriginal women was effectively rendered illegal. Itwas an offence for
a man to cohabit with an Aboriginal woman who was not his wife, and the Chief
Protectorroutinely refused all such marriage requests.
21
Otherpolicies encouraged
white men to marry lighter skinned women in order to "breed out colour" and
permission was accordingly granted for white men to marry "half-caste" women

Sanger said a “bonus” would be “wise and profitable” and “the salvation of American civilization.”14 She presented her ideas to Mr. C. Harold Smith (of the New York Evening World) on “the welfare committee” in New York City. She said, “people must be helped to help themselves.” Any plan or program that would make them “dependent upon doles and charities” is “paternalistic” and would not be “of any permanent value.” She included an essay (what she called a “program of public welfare,”) entitled “We Must Breed a Race of Thoroughbreds.”15

In it she argued that birth control clinics, or bureaus, should be established “in which men and women will be taught the science of parenthood and the science of breeding.” For this was the way “to breed out of the race the scourges of transmissible disease, mental defect, poverty, lawlessness, crime ... since these classes would be decreasing in number instead of breeding like weeds [emphasis added].”16

sorry about the disagreeable reference...

I think you are right to say "eliminar/erradicar" is too strong....and does not convey the meaning accurately..although this was Margaret Sanger's aim.

The use of English in your text is very poor indeed, and in actual fact conveys the wrong meaning completely

"outbreed" is the correct term..
