Hybrid varieties are those which are developed through crossing two plants of the same species. It is distinguishable from genetic modification because it is accomplished without manipulating the DNA through physically cutting a gene from one plant and then inserting it into another. It is also different from genetic engineering in that hybridization crosses plants of the same or similar species and genetic engineering removes a gene or gene from one species, such as a bacteria or virus, and inserts it into a totally different species, such as corn or soy.
