Solution
The correct option is C Emasculation
Emasculation involves the removal of stamens from bisexual flowers of the female parents in order to avoid self-pollination in these flowers. It is done before the anthers are mature. If in a condition the female parent bears bisexual flowers, then elimination of anthers from the flower bud before the anther matures. This step is known as emasculation. Caping is the covering of flower for preventing cross pollination. Crossing refers to hybridization. Selfing occurs in bisexual flowers. Thus, the correct answer is option C.
