Backcross Inbreeding

Backcross Inbreeding is a plant and animal breeding method that belongs to the broader category of inbreeding techniques, distinguished by its systematic repetition of crossing a hybrid progeny back to one of its parental genotypes over successive generations to increase homozygosity and recover the recurrent parent's genetic background while introgressing a specific trait from the donor parent.
