4.Principles of Inheritance and Variation
normal
Haploids are more suitable for mutation studies than the diploids. This is because
A
Haploids are reproductively more stable than diploids
B
Mutagens penetrate in haploids more effectively than in diploids
C
Haploids are more abundant in nature than diploids
D
All mutations whether dominant or recessive are expressed in haploids
Solution
Haploids plants can be produced in large number by anther and ovary cultures. Haploids may be useful for isolatio nof mutants, since, even recessive mutant alleles will be expressed in the mutagen treated generation itself.
