What is a pure line, loss of heterozygosity, inbreeding and hybrid

An inbred line is a nearly homozygous line obtained through continuous inbreeding , accompanied by selection, in a cross -pollinated species; it is maintained by close inbreeding (self pollination). They are used for the development of hybrid varieties, which are the first generations (F1) from crosses between two pure lines , inbreds, open pollinated varieties, cloned or other populations that are genetically dissimilar #homozygous #inbreeding #hybrid #populations #inbreds #CoefficientOfRelationship #GeneticsFieldOfStudy #inbreedingCoefficient #pedigrees #geneticDiversity #NikolaysGeneticsLessons #inbreedingDefects #whatHappensWhenYouInbreed #inbreedingInHumans #whatHappensWithInbreeding #inbreedingDogs #outbreeding #whatBreedingDoes #inbreedingDefinition #bloodRelations #PedigreeChart #pathCoefficientMethod #PedigreeAnalysis #pedigreeAnalysisGenetics
