Question

Which of the following are fused in somatic hybridization involving two varieties of plants?

विकल्प

• Protoplasts

• Pollens

• Callus

• Somatic embryos

Answer 1

Protoplasts

Explanation:

Protoplasts, or cells without cell walls, from two distinct plant species are fused together in somatic hybridisation. The genetic material from the two types can mix thanks to this fusion, possibly producing a hybrid plant with desirable characteristics. Somatic hybridisation processes usually do not fuse pollen, callus, and somatic embryos.
