Answer:
Hybridization is crossing two plants of different species to make a new variety. The new plant which is produced is known as hybrid which owns superior characters of both parent plants.
One major technique of plant breeding is selection, the process of selectively propagating plants with desirable characteristics and eliminating or "culling" those with less desirable characteristics.
