Base Claim:
1. A computer-implemented method performed by data processing apparatus comprising one or more computers in data communication, the method comprising: for each query submitted for a respective first search operation and for which first resources have been identified by the first search operation as being responsive the query, wherein each first resource is a web-page resource: determining a search probability ratio for the query that is at least based on a measure of a likelihood of the query being submitted for a second search operation being of search operation type that is different from a search operation type of the first search operation; for each query for which the search probability ratio for the query meets a threshold search probability ratio: initiating the second search operation and receiving data indicating second resources identified by the second search operation as being responsive the query, each second resource being a native application; determining, based at least on the search probability ratio, whether to insert a search result identifying the second resource in a set of search results identifying the first resources; and for each query for which a determination is made to insert a search result identifying the second resource in a set of search results identifying the first resources, inserting the search result identifying the second resource in the set of search results identifying the first resources.

Claim 8:
8. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein inserting the search result identifying the second resource in the set of search results identifying the first resources comprises replacing a search result identifying a first resource that is descriptive of a second resource with a search result that identities the second resource.
