Match List I with List II:
Show Hint
- Inbred lines: Homozygous and homogeneous.
- Single cross: Heterozygous and homogeneous.
- 3-way cross: Heterozygous and heterogeneous.
- Multiline: Homozygous and heterogeneous.
- A-I, B-IV, C-III, D-II
- A-II, B-III, C-I, D-IV
- A-III, B-IV, C-II, D-I
- A-II, B-III, C-IV, D-I
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
This question tests knowledge of population genetics and breeding materials.
Step 2: Detailed Explanation:
Inbred lines (A): Homozygous and homogeneous (II).
3-way cross hybrid (B): Heterozygous and heterogeneous (III) (e.g., (A × B) × C).
Single cross hybrid (C): Heterozygous and homogeneous (IV) (e.g., A × B).
Multiline (D): Homozygous and heterogeneous (I) (mixture of inbred lines).
Thus, the correct matching is A-II, B-III, C-IV, D-I.
Step 3: Final Answer:
Thus, the correct answer is A-II, B-III, C-IV, D-I, which corresponds to option (D).
