Solution (By Examveda Team)

Resistance exhibited by young seedlings is called Seedling resistance.
Seedling resistance is resistance that begins in the seedling stage of plant development and continues throughout its lifetime.
It is typically expressed at all growth stages, conferred by a single 'major effect' gene often associated with a hypersensitive response, and is often race-specific.
