How is plant hybridisation as a technique beneficial?
उत्तर
Plant hybridization is beneficial to us in the following ways:
- It is useful in obtaining clones and genetic experimental plants.
- It is a quick and convenient method.
- Hybrid plants are stronger than either parent plant in general and have a higher yield.
- Crop plants giving a much higher yield can be developed using this technique.
- Plants resistant to diseases, pests and climatic factors can be produced by hybridization with desired plants or wild species.
- The hybrid plants (especially ornamentals) have more colourful or fragrant flowers that enhance their commercial value.
