Question

After the stigma is covered, which of the following is manually applied to it to achieve the desired cross?

पर्याय

• Immature pollen collected from the same flower

• Any mature pollen available from nearby plants

• Selected mature pollen from a male parent

• Pollen from the female parent of the same flower

Answer 1

To control reproduction, selected mature pollen from the chosen male parent is manually applied to the stigma. Using immature pollen or pollen from the same flower would defeat the purpose of the controlled hybridization.
