Pluots are a fruit produced by cross-breeding plums and apricots. The outside of the fruit resembles the skin of a plum, while the inside has a flavor that resembles that of apricots. Is this an example of a new crop generated through breeding for optimization of a specific trait?

This is an example for optimization of a specific trait because of how there are specific traits from each fruit that are favorable that are included in this fruit. First, the inside of the fruit has the texture and flavor of an apricot, while the texture and feel of the skin is like a plum, and the fruit was probably bred to have these specific features.

explanation:

for  example, forests have higher evapotranspiration than other ecosystems,  such  as grasslands, because of their deeper roots and greater leaf area. thus forests have a net moistening effect on the atmosphere and become a moisture source for downwind ecosystems.
