A plant breeder wants to obtain a superior quality maize crop. What are the sequence of events he must follow to pollinate the maize flowers with the chosen pollen?
Options:
Answer:
A
Solution:
Emasculation is performed when a flower is bisexual and we do not want the pollen from the same flower to pollinate it (self-pollination) and contaminate the results. Maize has unisexual flowers. Its female flowers don't have anther and hence emasculation process is not needed.
