Hybridization is the process of crossing two genetically distinct plant varieties or species to produce hybrid offspring. It combines the desirable traits of both parents and creates new combinations of genes. The key steps of hybridization are selecting suitable parent plants, self-pollinating the parents to induce homozygosity, emasculating the female parent to prevent self-pollination, bagging and tagging the emasculated flowers, applying pollen from the male parent, and harvesting the seeds from the crossed flowers. Hybridization allows plant breeders to develop new varieties with higher yields, disease resistance, or other improved traits for agriculture and horticulture.
The mating or crossing of two plants or lines of dissimilar genotype is known as hybridization. The chief objective of hybridization is to create genetic variation, when two genotypically different plants are brought together in F1. Here, we are going to discuss about different strategies and tools used for hybridization.
Plant growth regulators (also called plant hormones) are numerous chemical substances that profoundly influence the growth and differentiation of plant cells, tissues and organs.
Plant Growth Regulators
Plant Growth Promoters – They promote cell division, cell enlargement, flowering, fruiting and seed formation. Examples are auxins, gibberellins and cytokinins.
Plant Growth Inhibitors – These chemicals inhibit growth and promote dormancy and abscission in plants. An example is an abscisic acid.

Clone is the progeny of a single plant, produced by asexual reproduction
Clonal selection is the selection of the most desirable members of a clone for continued vegetative propagation rather than for sexual reproduction.
The members of a clone keep up genetic constancy.
So by clonal selection and continued vegetative propagation, the desirable qualities of plants can be maintained for long.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2. Hybrid/Hybridization
• Hybrid: Individual produced as a result of cross between
two genetically different parents is known as hybrid.
• Hybridization: The production of a hybrid by crossing two
individuals of unlike genetical constitution is known as
hybridization. Or the mating or crossing of two plants or
lines of dissimilar genotype is known as hybridization.
• Hybridization is an important method of combining
characters of different plants.
• Hybridization does not change genetic contents of
organisms but it produces new combination of genes.
4. History
• The first natural hybridization was recorded by
Cotton Mather (1716) in corn. The first artificial inter-
specific plant hybrid was produced by Thomas Fairchild
in 1717. It is commonly known as ‘Fairchild Mule’.
• Hybridization was first of all practically utilized in crop
improvement by German botanist Joseph Koerauter
in 1760.
• Mendel onward, the hybridization had become the key
method of crop improvement.
• Today, it is the most common method of crop
improvement, and the vast majority of crop varieties
have resulted from hybridization.
5. Objectives
1. To artificially create a variable
population for the selection of types
with desired combination of characters.
2. To combine the desired characters into
a single individual, and
3. To exploit and utilize the hybrid
varieties.
6.
7. Types of Hybridization:
(i) Inter-varietal hybridization:
• The crosses are made between the plants of the
same species.
• It is also called intra-species hybridization
• Commonly used method
• Example: Crossing of two varieties of wheat,
rice, carrot, etc.
• It is further classified into two
A) Intra-specific
B) Inter-specific
15. Procedure OR methods of
Hybridization:
It involves the following steps:
(i) Selection of parents.
(ii) Selfing of parents or artificial self-
pollination.
(iii) Emasculation.
(iv) Bagging
(v) Tagging
(vi) Crossing
(vii) Harvesting and storing the F1 seeds
(viii) Raising the F1 generation.
16. Selection of parents.
• The selection of parents depends upon the aims and
objectives of breeding.
• Parental plants must be selected from the local areas
and are supposed to be the best suited to the existing
conditions.
• There are various methods by which plant selection
is carried out, namely selection for uniform plants,
known as pure line selection(selection of single best
plant progeny among traditional varieties);
selection from field-grown plants, known as bulk
selection or mass selection; and selection from a
well-documented list of parentage, commonly known
as the pedigree system.
17. Selfing of parents or artificial self-
pollination.
• It is essential for inducing homozygosity (state
of possessing two identical forms of a
particular gene) for eliminating the undesirable
characters and obtaining inbreeds.
• There are two types of self-pollination:
in autogamy, pollen is transferred to the stigma
of the same flower;
• In Geitonogamy, pollen is transferred from
the anther of one flower to the stigma of
another flower on the same flowering plant.
21. Emasculation
• It is the third step in hybridization. Inbreeds are
grown under normal conditions and are
emasculated.
• Emasculation is the removal of stamens from
female parent before they burst and shed their
pollens.
• It can be defined as the removal of stamens or
anthers or the killing of the pollen grains of a
flower without affecting in any way the female
reproductive organs.
• Emasculation is not required in unisexual plants
but it is essential in bisexual or self-pollinated
plants.
27. Bagging
• The emasculated flower or inflorescence is immediately
bagged to avoid pollination by any foreign pollen.
• The bags may be made of paper, polyethene paper, butter
paper, glassine or fine cloth.
• Butter paper or vegetable parchment bags are most
commonly used.
28. Tagging:
• The emasculated flowers are tagged just after bagging.
Generally circular tags of about 3 cm or rectangular tags of
about 3 x 2 cm are used. The tags are attached to the base
of flower or inflorescence with the help of thread.
• The information on tag must be as brief as possible but
complete bearing the following information:
(i) Number referring to the field record
(ii) Date of emasculation
(iii) Date of crossing
(iv) Name of the female parent is written first followed by
a cross sign (x) and then the male parent,
E.g., C x D denotes that C is the female parent and D is the
male parent.
29.
30. Crossing:
• It can be defined as the artificial cross-pollination
between the genetically unlike plants. In this
method mature, fertile and viable pollens from the
male parent are placed on the receptive stigma of
emasculated flowers to bring about fertilization.
• Pollen grains are collected in petridishs (e.g., Wheat,
cotton etc.) or in paper bags {e.g., maize) and
applied to the receptive stigmas with the help of a
camel hair brush, piece of paper, tooth pick or
forceps. In some crops (e.g., Jowar, Bajra) the
inflorescences of both the parents are enclosed in
the same bag.

32. Significance of Hybridization
• New plants with variations in genetic characters
are produced
• It incorporates many desirable characters of
other plants(like high yield, resistant to pests, etc)
into a single variety of plant
• It produces hybrids which are better adapted to
changes in the environment
• Hybridization is also development by asexual
hybridization or protoplast fusion in tissue culture
media.
