Hybrid incompatibility is a phenomenon in plants and animals, wherein offspring produced by the mating of two different species or populations have reduced viability and/or are less able to reproduce. Examples of hybrids include mules and ligers from the animal world, and subspecies of the Asian rice crop Oryza sativa from the plant world ...
The mule is a domestic equine hybrid between a donkey and a horse.It is the offspring of a male donkey (a jack) and a female horse (a mare). [1] [2] The horse and the donkey are different species, with different numbers of chromosomes; of the two possible first-generation hybrids between them, the mule is easier to obtain and more common than the hinny, which is the offspring of a male horse ...

One species lives all year round in fresh water, mainly in small streams. The other species lives in the sea during winter, but in spring and summer individuals migrate to river estuaries to reproduce. The members of the two populations are reproductively isolated due to their adaptations to distinct salt concentrations. [6]
Together they accounted for the consumption of over 2400 billion m 3 embodied water, roughly equating to 40% of total embodied [clarification needed] water by the whole system. [51] This means that more than one-third of China's entire water consumption is being used for food processing purposes, and mostly for animal agricultural practices.

When the biological pollution is introduced to an aquatic environment, it contributes to water pollution. Biopollution may cause adverse effects at several levels of biological organization: an individual organism (internal pollution by parasites or pathogens), a population (by genetic change, i.e. hybridization of IAS with a native species),
