Hybridization sometimes results in introgression, which can occur in response to habitat disturbance that puts plant species into contact with each other. [2] Introgression is gene transfer among taxa and is a result of hybridization, followed by repeated backcrossing with parental individuals.
An ornamental lily hybrid known as Lilium 'Citronella' [1] This is a list of plant hybrids created intentionally or by chance and exploited commercially in agriculture or horticulture. The hybridization event mechanism is documented where known, along with the authorities who described it.

Chausie, a hybrid between a jungle cat and domestic cat. Subfamily Pantherinae. Genus Panthera. Ligers and tigons (crosses between a lion and a tiger) and other Panthera hybrids such as the lijagulep. Species P. tigris. A hybrid between a Bengal tiger and a Siberian tiger is an example of an intra-specific hybrid. Family Canidae
Because many interspecific (and even intergeneric) barriers to hybridization in the Orchidaceae are maintained in nature only by pollinator behavior, it is easy to produce complex interspecific and even intergeneric hybrid orchid seeds: all it takes is a human motivated to use a toothpick, and proper care of the mother plant as it develops a seed pod.
Introgressive hybridization, also known as introgression, is the flow of genetic material between divergent lineages via repeated backcrossing. In plants, this backcrossing occurs when an F 1 {\displaystyle F_{1}} generation hybrid breeds with one or both of its parental species.
Pattern of hybridization in the Pacific iris syngameon. Solid lines indicate natural hybridization is common. Dashed lines indicate that natural hybridization is rare. Iris thompsonii is a hybrid species. [1] The term syngameon comes from the root word syngamy coined by Edward Bagnall Poulton to define groups that freely interbreed. [5]
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 ...
