1. Genetic engineering: Genetic engineering is a technique used to modify the genetic material of an organism, usually for industrial or agricultural purposes. Hybridization is often used as a preliminary step in genetic engineering, to create hybrid organisms with desirable traits that can then be manipulated using genetic engineering techniques.

2. Breeding: Breeding is the process of selectively mating and breeding animals or plants in order to produce offspring with desirable traits. Hybridization is a common technique used in breeding, to create hybrid offspring by crossing two different parent species. The resulting hybrid offspring may exhibit desirable traits from both parent species, making them valuable in breeding programs.
