Solution(By Examveda Team)
The method followed for the production of inbreds in Self-incompatible lines is Sibbing as well as Bud pollination.Self-incompatibility (SI) is a general name for several genetic mechanisms that prevent self-fertilization in sexually reproducing organisms and thus encourage outcrossing and allogamy. Sibbing is a process of pollinating an emasculated plant with pollen from a sister plant.
The pollination taking place when the flower is in the bud condition is called bud pollination. It usually occurs in the flowers in which the stigma and the pollen grains mature or ripens even before the opening of the bud. Example Pea, Grass, etc.
