Hybrid is also an adjective. a hybrid system. Offspring of parents that differ in genetically determined traits (see genetics). The parents may be of two different species, genera, or (rarely) families. The terms "mongrel" and "crossbreed" refer usually to animals or plants resulting from a cross between two races, breeds, strains, or varieties of the same species. Because of basic biological incompatibilities, sterile hybrids (those that cannot produce living young) such as the mule (a hybrid between a jackass and a mare) commonly result from crosses between species. Some species hybrids, however, are fertile and can be sources for the formation of new species. Many economically or aesthetically important cultivated plants (e.g., bananas, coffee, peanuts, dahlias, roses, bread wheats, alfalfa, etc.) originated through natural or artificially induced hybridization. Hybridization is important biologically because it increases necessary genetic variation within a species; The offspring of genetically different parents See also: heterozygote; Produced from the mixture of two species; as, plants of hybrid nature; The young, or offspring, of two animals or plants that are different varieties or species; {s} crossbred, produced through crossbreeding; (Otomotiv) An alternative power plant that combines a small internal combustion engine and an electric motor to get maximum power with minimum emissions and maximum fuel economy. See also alternative power plants; A crop line produced by crossing two genetically different parents The offspring often show 'hybrid vigour' with better yields than either of the parent plants; The offspring of two parents differing in at least one genetic characteristic (trait) Also, a heteroduplex DNA or DNA-RNA molecule; A package of two or more different kinds of risk management instruments that are usually interactive; A car that runs on both gas and electricity or energy from the sun; individual organism resulting from a cross between parents of differing genotypes Hybrids may be fertile or sterile, depending on qualitative and/or quantitative differences in the genomes of the two parents Hybrids are most commonly formed by sexual cross-fertilization between compatible organisms, but techniques for the production of hybrids from widely differing organisms are being developed by cell fusion and tissue culture [CUB slightly modified by JVG]; produced by crossbreeding; the offspring of two parents of different species or varieties; 1 The offspring of two sexually-reproducing homozygous individuals of different genotypes 2 As a ZFIN Mapping Data type, a radiation (somatic cell) hybrid experiment; a composite of mixed origin; "the vice-presidency is a hybrid of administrative and legislative offices"; Offspring produced by breeding genetically different organisms; The offspring of two animals or plants of different races, breeds, varieties, species, or genera; consisting of diverse components; an individual with parents of different species; The offspring of two sexually-reproducing homozygous individuals of different genotypes; Hybrid plants are the result of a cross-pollination, that is, the breeding of two plants that differ genetically in some way; the two plants can be of different varieties or even species Hybrids, which are also referred to as first-generation or F1 plants, will generally not produce offspring with the same characteristics as themselves In fact, most often, the second generation will be markedly inferior For this reason, gardeners who save their own seed should focus on open-pollinated varieties, which will remain true, generation after generation; {i} crossbreed, mixed breed, cross between two animals or plants from different breeds or species; loanblend, word comprising parts from different languages; Any intermediate plant resulting from crossing two or more different biotypes of the same species or biotypes from two different species; A word composed of elements which belong to different languages; a composite of mixed origin; "the vice-presidency is a hybrid of administrative and legislative offices

wolf hybrid: A wolf-dog hybrid (also called a wolf hybrid or wolfdog) is a canid hybrid resulting from the mating of a wolf (Canis lupus) and a dog (Canis lupus familiaris).

Professional organizations such as the American Veterinary Medical Association and government agencies such as the United States Department of Agriculture refer to the animals as wolf-dog hybrids. Rescue organizations consider any animal with wolf heritage within the last five generations to be a wolfdog, including established wolfdog breeds
