Howdy,
Perhaps your referring to "Cultivars" who genetically engineer plants to hopefully get the best attributes of two or more host plants. The science is trial and error with a bit of luck sometimes.
As for resistant to insects?...This is a controversial subject because the bacteria used to keep the insects from attacking the plants could potentially hurt beneficial insects.
Happy Gardening,

What are some reasons for dna testing?
Some reasons to get dna testing are to accurately diagnose diseases and to prevent or delay future genetic diseases. DNA testing is also important with organ transplanting. Another reason would be for legal and social reasons when paternity is uncertain.
