The performance of a double cross hybrid (A × C) × (B × D) can be predicted from the average performance of the combination of
A. A × B, A × C, C × B and C × D
B. A × B, A × D, B × C and C × D
C. A × B, A × C, A × D and B × C
D. A × B, C × D, A × C and B × D
Answer: Option B
Solution(By Examveda Team)
The performance of a double cross hybrid (A × C) × (B × D) can be predicted from the average performance of the combination of A × B, A × D, B × C and C × D.The performance of a double cross hybrid is predicted based on the average performance of the four non-parental single cross hybrids. In this method, the predicted performance of each of the three possible double-cross hybrids would be different.
