Anisoploid
Definition
Having an asymmetric, unequal, or non-uniform number of chromosome sets; an organism, cell, or hybrid characterized by anisoploidy. In plant genetics, it describes individuals resulting from crosses of parents with different ploidy levels (for instance, a tetraploid with a diploid), resulting in an aberrant or unbalanced number of chromosomes in the somatic set.
