Solution
The correct option is D Hexaploid
Triticum durum wheat is a tetraploid wheat that was developed by intergeneric hybridization between Triticum urartu (2n = 2x = 14, AA genome) and Aegilops speltoides (2n = 2x = 14, SS genome). The resultant hybrid was treated with colchicine to induce polyploidy; thus it is an allotetraploid species. Triticum aestivum is allohexaploid species (6n= 42) and which was developed by intergeneric hybridization between Triticum dicocoides (2n = 4x = 28, AABB genome) and Aegilops squarrosa (2n = 2x = 14, DD genome). The resultant trihybrid was treated with colchicine to induce polyploidy, thus it is an allohexploid species. Triticum monococcum is diploid species with 2n=14.
