Discuss two ways of encorporating desirable characteristics into crop varieties.

Open in App
Solution

The first method is hybridization. In this process, two genetically different crops or plants are crossed to come up with a new and unique variety of crop.


The second method is to induce genetically transformed crops. This can be done by introducing a gene with the characteristics you desire to improve the variety, and bring in, a different species altogether.
