Consider the following genotypes
Consider the following genotypes
1. Breeding lines
2. Land races
3. Variety under cultivation
What is the correct sequence of these in terms of their importance to farmers
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer:
Option
B
The correct sequence of these genotypes in terms of their importance to farmers are:
First of all, is Landraces, then Variety under cultivation, and lastly breeding lines.
The term “landrace” has generally been defined as a cultivated, genetically heterogeneous variety that has evolved in a certain ecogeographical area and is therefore adapted to the edaphic and climatic conditions and to its traditional management and uses.
In agriculture, a variety corresponds to a population of plants of a given species that have been selected and cultivated.
Breeding lines are a group of identical pure-breeding diploid or polyploid organisms, distinguished from other individuals of the same species by some unique phenotype and genotype.
