Wild plan ts are as important as cultivated plants as they:A. Carry important genetic element (DNA) or genesB. High tielding varietiesC. Have hybrid vigourD. All of the above

Answer» Correct Answer - A
Wild plants have excellent capacity of carrying important genes for disease resitance, water stress resistence and frost resistance and thus there genetic materials are used to induce these characters in cultivated plants through hybridization or by recombinant DNA technology. Hihg yielding varieties are first made disease resistant before alowing them for field trials or for cultivation as crop plants.
