NEET 2024, Biology Q48: Recombinant DNA Technology
NEET2024Biology
Q.
Which of the following are fused in somatic hybridization involving two varieties of plants?
- A
Protoplasts
- B
Pollens
- C
Callus
- D
Somatic embryos
Solution
In somatic hybridisation, the cell walls of somatic cells of two parental varieties are first digested enzymatically, and the resulting naked protoplasts are fused chemically (e.g., with PEG) or electrically to produce a somatic hybrid.
