hybrids

Definition of hybrids in English English dictionary: Hybridisation is more likely in freshwater habitats, particularly disturbed ones, where one species is rare or recently introduced or where reared fish of one species like salmon are introduced into an area where wild fish of a closely related species occur; Plant varieties created by cross breeding two different plant varieties; plural of hybrid; are the offspring of genetically different parents, usually a distinct species
F1 hybrids: plural form of F1 hybrid
hybrid: A word whose elements are derived from different languages
hybrid: A golf club that combines the characteristics of an iron and a wood
hybrid: Offspring resulting from cross-breeding different entities, e.g. two different species or two purebred parent strains
hybrid: Short for hybrid car, one that runs on both fuel (gasoline/diesel) and electricity (battery or energy from the sun)
hybrid: consisting of diverse 'hybridized' components
hybrid: cross-bred
hybrid: A plant resulting from the cross mating of distinctly different parental types From the Latin word hybrida or offspring of a domesticated sow and a wild boar
hybrid: {n} an animal or plant, the produce of two species, mongrel
hybrid: 1 The offspring of two sexually-reproducing homozygous individuals of different genotypes 2 As an MGI Mapping Data type, a somatic cell hybrid experiment

hybrid: Something of mixed origin or composition
hybrid: A cross between two different species of bird
hybrid: A cross between two parent plants that are are from the same species but don't look exactly like each other
hybrid: (bio) Offspring of two different varieties or of two different species; alternatively, offspring of two parents that differ in one or more heritable characteristics (Latin, hybrida, the offspring of a tame sow and a wild boar)
hybrid: A package containing two or more different kinds of risk management instruments that are usually interactive
hybrid: Said of a vine-plant which is the result of a cross between two distinct types of wine If the two varieties which have been crossed are of the same family, an intraspecific hybrid is obtained; if they are of different families, an interspecific hybrid is obtained The most widely spread crossbreeding is that of American and European species, which produces hybrids resistant to phylloxera Unfortunately the wines which result from this are only of mediocre quality
hybrid: The first generation offspring of a sexual cross fertilisation between two individuals differing in one or more genes i e a heterozygote
hybrid: The progeny that results from the mating or crossing of two different species or organisms In plants, hybrids often display characteristics that are more favorable than those of their parents
hybrid: Offspring resulting from cross-breeding different entities, e.g. two different species or two purebreed parent strains
hybrid: an organism that is the offspring of genetically dissimilar parents or stock; especially offspring produced by breeding plants or animals of different varieties or breeds or species; "a mule is a cross between a horse and a donkey"
hybrid: The offspring of the union of two distinct species; an animal or plant produced from the mixture of two species
hybrid: a word that is composed of parts from different languages (e g , `monolingual' has a Greek prefix and a Latin root)
hybrid: A hybrid is an animal or plant that has been bred from two different species of animal or plant. All these brightly coloured hybrids are so lovely in the garden. Hybrid is also an adjective. the hybrid maize seed
hybrid: A device or system combining two types of mechanisms, circuits, or design approaches, each of which could of itself accomplish the total function but in a different and usually less effective manner A hybrid computer combines digital and analog computers into one functioning system
hybrid: You can use hybrid to refer to anything that is a mixture of other things, especially two other things. a hybrid of solid and liquid fuel. 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
hybrid: The offspring of genetically different parents See also: heterozygote
hybrid: Produced from the mixture of two species; as, plants of hybrid nature
hybrid: The young, or offspring, of two animals or plants that are different varieties or species
hybrid: {s} crossbred, produced through crossbreeding
hybrid: (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
hybrid: 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
hybrid: The offspring of two parents differing in at least one genetic characteristic (trait) Also, a heteroduplex DNA or DNA-RNA molecule
hybrid: A package of two or more different kinds of risk management instruments that are usually interactive
hybrid: A car that runs on both gas and electricity or energy from the sun
hybrid: 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]
hybrid: produced by crossbreeding
hybrid: the offspring of two parents of different species or varieties
hybrid: 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
hybrid: a composite of mixed origin; "the vice-presidency is a hybrid of administrative and legislative offices"
hybrid: Offspring produced by breeding genetically different organisms
hybrid: The offspring of two animals or plants of different races, breeds, varieties, species, or genera
hybrid: consisting of diverse components
hybrid: an individual with parents of different species
hybrid: The offspring of two sexually-reproducing homozygous individuals of different genotypes
hybrid: 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
hybrid: {i} crossbreed, mixed breed, cross between two animals or plants from different breeds or species; loanblend, word comprising parts from different languages
hybrid: Any intermediate plant resulting from crossing two or more different biotypes of the same species or biotypes from two different species
hybrid: A word composed of elements which belong to different languages
hybrid: a composite of mixed origin; "the vice-presidency is a hybrid of administrative and legislative offices
