Detailed explanation-1: -Hybridization refers to crossing between genetically dissimilar plants. This crossing may be intervarietal (between different varieties), interspecific (between two different species of the same genus) or intergeneric (between different genera).
Detailed explanation-2: -Hybridization is the technique of breeding two different individuals of the same or other species in order to achieve the desired changes in the organisms. This technique can be used for both plants and animals. Interspecific and intraspecific are the two types of sexual hybridization techniques.
Detailed explanation-3: -(i) Hybridization means crossing between genetically dissimilar plants. (ii) Cross between two varieties is called as inter specific hybridisation. (iii) Introducing genes of desired character into a plant gives genetically modified crop.
Detailed explanation-4: -The process of producing offspring by crossing two plants from different varieties or species is called hybridization.
Detailed explanation-5: -Hybridization is the process of developing a new variety by crossing two plants from different species. The new plant is referred to as a hybrid since it possesses the best characteristics of both parent plants.
