Q.55

Genetics & Plant Breeding - ICAR JRF/SRF 2024

MCQ (Single Correct) +4 −1

Pre-breeding involves:

Identification of desirable trait expressions not present in the cultivated germplasm and transferring them from unadapted germplasm into breeding populations. Identification of novel traits in crop wild relatives and their transfer to cultivated genepool resulting in broadening of genetic base Attempts to transfer genes controlling novel trait variations from crop wild relatives and unadapted germplasm into agronomically superior cultivars overcoming the problems of ‘linkage drag’ 1,2 and 3 above
