                The reason why vagetatively reproducing crop plants are best suited for maintaining hybrid vigour is that:

    A)             they can be easily propagated      

    B)             they have a longer life span

    C)             they are more resistant to dieases              

    D)             once a desired hybrid is produced, there are no chances of losing it

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Vegetative reproduction is the process of multiplication in a small part or portion of the plant body which functions as a propagule and develops into a new individual. Thus, vegetative reproduction does not involve meiosis; hence, recombination and no loss of heterozygosity.
