Synthetic varieties having major genetic variability. Soaking up of water by dry substances due to hydrophilic colloids is: Imbibition Shrinkage of protoplasm due to outward flow of water in a hypertonic solution: Plasmolysis The effect of global warming is somewhat good on C4 plants because they are efficient user of CO2. Emerson & Lewis: They observed that quantum yield declined sharply at wavelength greater than 600 nm in red zone also called red drop. The cold treatment to a plant bud or seedling in order to fulfill a specific low temperature requirement is known as Vernalisation. Most abundant chemical present in the cell wall is Lignin. Accumulation of hormone during stress is: Proline. Photorespiration occurs in C3 plants in Light only. Nutrient evolved in the biosynthesis of IAA is: Zn. Term Vernalization is coined by: Lysenko The inflorescence of banana is known as Spadix. The theory of Natural selection proposed by Charles Darwin. The theory of Acquired selection characteristics was proposed by Lamarck. Single gene affecting more than one character is known as Pleiotrophy. Garlic and turmeric are examples of modified stem of Rhizome. The structure of chromosome can be best observed during: Metaphase Ribosomes are small cellular particles which are the sites of Protein synthesis. Aseptic conditions means Pathogen free environment. An individual having both male and female reproductive organs is known as: Hermaphrodite Gamete is fertile but still seed is not produced due to: Self – Incompatibility. Type of male sterility used in hybrid seed production in pearl millet is Cytoplasmic genetic male sterility. A variety resistant to more than one race of pathogen is due to horizontal resistance. Plant showing less than 5% cross pollination is considered as: Self pollinated Cell wall of fungi is chiefly made up of Chitin. A common crop of natural auto-tetraploid grown in India is Potato. Centrosome present only in animal cell.

In mitochondria found only 70s types of: Ribosomes Alternative form of gene is known as Allele. Tilt 60 is important source of male sterility in: Sorghum Often cross-pollinated crops are: Cotton, Sorghum The theory of inheritance was proposed by: G. Mendel The shortest phase of all mitosis phase is Anaphase. The site of protein synthesis is Ribosome. Physical basis of life is Protoplasm. Onion is modified form of Leaf. Onion and Garlic are examples of: Bulb. Most mutant tolerant are polyploids. Characters which express in one sex only are known as Sex limited traits. Examples of prokaryotes: cells of Mycoplasm, Bacteria, and Blue Green Algae. In CAM plants transpiration is negligible since stomata closed during the day. Physical chromosome exchange (crossing over) takes place in Pachytene. Closest form of inbreeding possible in self-incompatible species is Sib mating. Ethidium bromide has been found effective in inducing cytoplasmic male sterility in pearl millet and barley. The tift 23-A and Kafir-60 are the important source of male sterility in pearl millet and sorghum respectively. Crossing of F1 with one of its parents: Backcross. Development of fruits without fertilization: Parthenocarpy. Autotriploidy is found in Banana. The lines are homogenous and homozygous in nature are called as pure line. Pureline is obtained by continuous inbreeding (selfing) in self-pollinated crops. Science of identifying the sequence of DNA in species: Genomics PCR techniques provides: Several copies of specific DNA sequence NaOH test is used for testing the: Karnal bunt disease of wheat Transfer of genetic material from one cell to another cell by means of viral vector: Transduction The study of interactions between antigens and antibodies is called: Serology.
