Solution

The correct option is C

Hybridization


Combined qualities from two different plants can be achieved by methods like hybridization and grafting. Hybridization is a method which uses artificial pollination technique to combine the qualities of dissimilar plants to get a hybrid plant with qualities of both the plants. Hybridization can be intervarietal, interspecific or intergeneric.

Grafting, layering and stem cutting are artificial methods of vegetative propagation and do not use pollination at all.
