Interspecific Hybrids Offspring of two animals or plants of different species

Interspecific Hybrids Interspecific hybrids are two organisms like plants or animals that are of the same genus, but different species that are similar enough (genetically) to reproduce.

Sterility Problems “Sterility is often attributed to the different number of chromosomes the two species have, for example donkeys have 62 chromosomes, while horses have 64 chromosomes, and mules and hinnies have 63 chromosomes. Mules, hinnies, and other normally sterile interspecific hybrids cannot produce viable gametes”.donkeyschromosomeshorsesmuleshinniesgametes Source: Wikipedia

Mule Male Donkey X Female Horse

Hinny Male Horse X Female Donkey

Broccoflower

Tangelo Tangerine X Grapefruit or Pomelo = Tangelo

Jonagold apple Jonathon X Golden Delicious= Jonagold

Liger Male Lion X Female Tiger = Liger (Females Fertile Males Sterile)

Tigon Female Lion X Male Tiger = Tigon (Females Fertile Males Sterile)

Zeedonk Zebra X Donkey = Zeedonk

Zonkey Male Zebra and Female Donkey

Zorse Horse X Zebra = Zorse

Beefalo Cow X Buffalo = Beefalo (fertile)

Limequat Lime X Kumquat = Limequat

Loganberry Blackberry X Raspberry = Loganberry
