Q. Consider the following statements regarding cytoplasm transfer via somatic hybridization:
Statement I: Cytoplasm transfer that normally takes 6–7 years via backcrossing can be achieved in just one year using protoplast fusion.
Statement II: Iodoacetate is used to inactivate the nucleus of the recipient parent protoplasts.
Statement III: Irradiation of donor protoplasts is used to inactivate their nuclei.
Statement IV: The resulting cybrids contain the nucleus of parent A and mitochondria of parent B.

Q. Regarding cybridization for male sterile line development:
Statement I: Cybrids allow rapid transfer of mitochondria even across sexually incompatible species.
Statement II: Male sterile lines developed via protoplast fusion can be used for hybrid seed production using CMS restorers.
Statement III: Nuclear genomes are exchanged between donor and recipient protoplasts in cybridization.
