Q. Assertion (A): Asymmetric hybrids often contain multiple genome copies of the non-irradiated parent.
Reason (R): Irradiation of one parent leads to extensive chromosome breakage and deletion.

#Plant Biotechnology
Q. Assertion (A): After repeated backcrossing of asymmetric hybrids with N. plumbaginifolia, plants with a diploid N. plumbaginifolia genome and a few A. belladonna chromosomes were recovered.
Reason (R): Backcrossing helps eliminate unwanted alien chromosomes while retaining selected genes.

Q. Assertion (A): All asymmetric hybrids contained nitrate reductase gene and rDNA repeats of Atropa belladonna.
Reason (R): rDNA repeats are often preferentially retained during asymmetric hybridization.

Q.Assertion (A): Hybrids obtained from irradiated carrot and non-irradiated rice protoplast fusion resembled rice plants.
Reason (R): The non-irradiated parent usually contributes more intact genomic material.

#Plant Biotechnology
Q. Assertion: The fusion of B. napus (AACC) and B. nigra (BB) results in a hybrid with the genomic constitution AABBCC.
Reason: This specific interspecific fusion was primarily conducted to transfer resistance against Phoma lingam (black-leg disease) to rapeseed.

#Plant Biotechnology
Q. Assertion: Somatic hybridization between non-flowering and male sterile dihaploid clones of potato can result in male fertile hybrids.
Reason: Symmetric hybridization allows for the creation of superior hybrids and the generation of novel genetic material by bypassing traditional sexual reproduction barriers.
