An organism with four genomes derives from hybridization of different species. Usually, in forms that become established, two of the four genomes are from one species and two are from…

Organic basic nitrogenous compounds with physiological action, found in plants. Naturally occurring organic bases which have pharmacological actions. Many are found in plant foods, including potatoes and tomatoes (the Solarium alkaloids), or as the products of fungal action (e.g. ergot), although they also occur in animal foods (e.g. tetrodotoxin in puffer fish, tetramine in shellfish).…
