  1. hybridise

    Hybridise is a biological term which refers to the process of combining two different species or varieties of organisms to create a hybrid. This can happen naturally through cross-pollination or reproductive mechanisms, or artificially through selective breeding or genetic engineering. It is often done to produce organisms with desirable characteristics from both parent species. The term can also be used more broadly in other fields such as chemistry and business to describe the combining or blending of different elements or practices to create something new and potentially more effective or efficient.
