Plant breeding has dramatically increased agricultural productivity and will play an important role in adapting to a changing climate and feeding the growing population. In many cases the desired trait, be it disease/insect resistance, or adaptation to cold, heat, or drought stress, is not present in the crop but can be incorporated by hybridization with closely related wild relatives. However, this requires that the species are sexually compatible with each other, which is often not the case.

植物育种极大地提高了农业生产力，并将在适应气候变化和养活不断增长的人口方面发挥重要作用。在许多情况下，所需的性状，无论是抗病性/抗虫性，还是对冷、热或干旱胁迫的适应性，都不存在于作物中，但可以通过与密切相关的野生近缘种杂交来引入。然而，这需要物种之间的性相容，而事实往往并非如此。
