Question

which of the following is the main application of embryo culture _______ A. clonal propagation B. production of embryoids C. induction of somaclonal variations D. overcoming hybridisation barriers

Answer 1

Answer:

which of the following is the main application of embryo culture production of embryoids

Answer 2

Answer:

D. overcomming hybridisation barriers

Explanation:

Hybridization barrier means limited interbreeding between two populations which reduces the variability. Embryo rescue or culture is a technique which allows the plant to overcome the hybridization barrier by mixing the genetic pool of two population. Embryo rescue or embryo culture is a technique which nurtures the immature or weak embryo, thus allowing it the chance to survive. Plant embryos are multicellular structures that have the potential to develop into a new plant. It allows the breeding of incompatible interspecific and intergeneric species and helps to overcome the hybridisation  barrier .
