Usage notes

The terms landrace and breed have some overlap. The former is sometimes used in cases where selective breeding was the initial source of differentiation. The same term is also sometimes used in the names of breeds based on landraces, even though the breed is itself not considered a landrace. Breeds also sometimes retain the name of the landrace from which they derived.

Synonyms

  • (any domesticated animal or plant adapted to its new environment): natural breed (animal), traditional breed (animal), traditional variety (plant)
