Solution

The correct option is B Emasculation --> Bagging --> Cross-pollination --> Rebagging
Artificial hybridisation in the process during which only desired pollen is used for pollination.
A bisexual flower is taken. Anthers are removed (emascualtion). Emasculated flower is covered with butter paper (bagging). When the bagged stigma attains receptivity, the desired set of pollen is dusted (pollination). Rebagging is done and fruits are allowed to develop.
