Solution (By Examveda Team)

The breeding method for transferring monogenic disease resistance from wild species to an improved variety of wheat is the Backcross method.
Backcrossing is a crossing of a hybrid with one of its parents or an individual genetically similar to its parent, to achieve offspring with a genetic identity closer to that of the parent.
Backcrossing and/or convergent backcrossing have been used for transferring resistance to desirable agronomic backgrounds. The number of backcrosses needed to achieve agronomically similar derivatives depends on the donor genotype.
