Open in App
Solution
The correct option is B Biofortification
Breeding of crops with high levels of minerals, vitamins, and proteins can be done through agronomic practices, conventional plant breeding or modern biotechnology. And such a process is called biofortification.
Somatic hybridization is a technique which allows the manipulation of cellular genomes by protoplast fusion. Its major contribution to plant breeding is in overcoming common crossing barriers among plant species.
Biomagnification is the increasing concentration of a substance, such as a toxic chemical, in the tissues of organisms at successively higher levels in a food chain.
Micropropagation is a rapid multiplication of a selected plant using in vitro culture techniques.
