1. One problem is that the seeds collected from a hybridized plant that you want to use next season, won't breed true. You need to buy new hybrid seeds. Countries have created seed banks, to preserve the diversity of original seeds.

2. Hybridization, while improving some qualities of plants, often discards desirable traits for business or other reasons. For example, a tomato may be bred to have a thicker skin (which is good for transport) but will sacrifice taste.

3. Hybrid plants can be copyright protected. Monsanto has developed hybrid plants that can tolerate spraying by Round-Up, a popular herbicide.

Unfortunately, Monsanto has been suing farmers who have been found to have those plants in their fields due to wind drift from neighboring fields.

Monsanto has also sued farmers who want to save seed for next season, which is a traditional practice.

Answer 4

Hybrid animals will typically have the best traits of each animal. They will have the best genes so that they can increase their chances of survival.

Answer 5

hybrid plants get the combined characteristics of the female and male plant. they don't have much fiber and they are normally sweeter than "pure" fruits.
