The correct option is B Crossing $F_{1}$ individuals amongst themselves
Progeny or individuals formed by the crossing homozygous dominant and recessive parents is called $F_{1}$ progeny and the generation is called $F_{1}$ generation. The generation formed by crossing of $F_{1}$ progeny among themselves is called $F_{2}$ generation.
So, the correct option is 'Crossing $F_{1}$ individuals amongst themselves'.
