Answer:
true
Explanation:
Seeds have to be produced every year because seeds collected from hybrid plants, if sown subsequently, do not maintain hybrid characters due to segregation of traits. Production of hybrid seeds every year is costly thus increases the cost of crop production. This can be avoided if apomixis can be introduced in hybrid seeds, as apomixis, does not involve formation of zygote through gametic fusion and is a form of asexual reproduction. Apornixis produces seeds without fertilization from cells other than egg cells. Embryos formed through apomixis are better clones than cuttings and generally free from infections.
