crossbreeders
They combine lineages
Crossbreeders are people who breed animals or plants of different varieties, breeds, or species to produce hybrids.
The practice aims to combine desirable traits from both parents—a dog breeder might cross two breeds for temperament and size, a farmer might cross crop varieties for yield and disease resistance.
The crossbreeders developed a hardier strain of wheat.
