  2. Hybrid (biology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybrid_(biology)

    A mule is a sterile hybrid of a male donkey and a female horse.Mules are smaller than horses but stronger than donkeys, making them useful as pack animals.. In biology, a hybrid is the offspring resulting from combining the qualities of two organisms of different varieties, subspecies, species or genera through sexual reproduction.

A hybrid between a Bengal tiger and a Siberian tiger is an example of an intra-specific hybrid. Family Canidae

  4. Hybridity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybridity

    In biology, a hybrid is the offspring resulting from combining the qualities of two organisms of different varieties, species or genera through sexual reproduction. Generally, it means that each cell has genetic material from two different organisms, whereas an individual where some cells are derived from a different organism is called a ...

  5. Hybrid incompatibility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybrid_incompatibility

    Hybrid incompatibility is a phenomenon in plants and animals, wherein offspring produced by the mating of two different species or populations have reduced viability and/or are less able to reproduce. Examples of hybrids include mules and ligers from the animal world, and subspecies of the Asian rice crop Oryza sativa from the plant world ...

  6. Eukaryote hybrid genome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eukaryote_hybrid_genome

    An example of a homoploid hybrid genome is a schematic of the mosaic genome of the Italian sparrow which is a hybrid resulting from the house sparrow P. domesticus which spread across the Mediterranean with agriculture and encountered and hybridized with local populations of Spanish sparrow P. hispaniolensis [48,49,85].

  7. Hybrid speciation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybrid_speciation

    For a hybrid form to persist, it must be able to exploit the available resources better than either parent species, which, in most cases, it will have to compete with.For example: while grizzly bears and polar bears may be able to mate and produce offspring, a grizzly–polar bear hybrid is apparently less- suited in either of the parents' ecological niches than the original parent species ...

  8. Hybridization in perennial plants - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybridization_in_perennial...

    Hybrid species are often more vigorous and genetically differed than their ancestors. There are primarily two different forms of hybridization: natural hybridization in an uncontrolled environment, whereas artificial hybridization (or breeding) occurs primarily for the agricultural purposes.

  9. Cytoplasmic hybrid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cytoplasmic_hybrid

    A cytoplasmic hybrid (or cybrid, a portmanteau of the two words) is a eukaryotic cell line produced by the fusion of a whole cell with a cytoplast. Cytoplasts are enucleated cells. This enucleation can be effected by simultaneous application of centrifugal force and treatment of the cell with an agent that disrupts the cytoskeleton.
