Answer: Option B

Solution(By Examveda Team)

Recessive bud mutation is most likely to be expressed in a Clone.
A clone is a group of plants produced exclusively from a single individual plant through asexual reproduction.
Bud mutation is a type of somatic mutation in plants, which refers to changes in the genetic material in meristem cells of the bud during cell division. And Recessive bud mutation gets expressed only under homozygous conditions, thus can be expressed in clones only, through asexual or somatic hybridization.
