An individual with a heterozygous genotype cannot be true-bred.
Wiki User
∙ 12y ago
A heterozygous genotype (e.g. Aa) is not true-breeding because it carries two different alleles for a trait and can produce offspring with different genotypes when crossed. True-breeding genotypes are homozygous for a particular trait (e.g. AA or aa) and will consistently produce offspring with the same genotype when crossed.

How is a purebred individual from a hybrid individual?
Purebred is only possible in Homozygous conditions such as AA or aa, and indvidual that is a hybrid (Aa) is not truebreeding and therefore is not purebred.
