peer agreement (net): +1| chimera خيمر/نباتات خيمرية Explanation: Chimeras in botany are single organisms composed of two genetically different types of tissue. They occur in plants, on the same general basis as with animal chimeras. http://www.answers.com/topic/chimera-plant So in Zoology, chimera is translated as خيمر and it's حيوان خرافي له رأس أسد وجسم ماعز وذنب تنين Also as a medical term, it's خيمر and Chimerism is خيمرية http://www.hmc.org.qa/med_dic.asp?sbets=f&sbetf=j&sletter=C So it could be as well النباتات الخيمرية |
