A Labradoodle, a crossbreed between a poodle and a retriever. A crossbreed or crossbred usually refers to an organism with purebred parents of two different breeds, varieties, or populations.
In plants, inbred backcross lines (IBLs) refers to lines (i.e. populations) of plants derived from the repeated backcrossing of a line with artificially recombinant DNA with the wild type, operating some kind of selection that can be phenotypical or through a molecular marker (for the production of introgression lines). If the recurrent parent is an elite genotype, at the end of the backcrossing programme an elite genotype is recovered. 2  As there is no new recombination, the elite combination is not lost.
