They are different cultivars both of the citrus family.

So they're hybrids? Have they (the limes) been specifically
cultivated to have no seeds? If so, why not do the same with
lemons?

When I last made lime marmalade the Limes had a few seeds

Strange. I've used about 20 limes over the past month or so
and not one had a seed in it.
