Question:
Assertion [A]: Genetic variability is the root of any breeding programme.
Reason [R]: The entire collection of plants or seeds having all the diverse alleles for all genes in a given crop is called germ plasm collection.
Assertion [A]: Genetic variability is the root of any breeding programme.
Reason [R]: The entire collection of plants or seeds having all the diverse alleles for all genes in a given crop is called germ plasm collection.
Show Hint
Germplasm collection is essential for preserving biodiversity and ensuring the availability of genetic resources in breeding programs.

- A and R are correct. R is the correct explanation of A.
- A and R are correct. R is not the correct explanation of A.
- A is correct but R is incorrect.
- A is incorrect but R is correct.

Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
Genetic variability is indeed crucial in breeding programs, but the reason about germ plasm collection is not a direct explanation for the assertion about genetic variability. Germ plasm collection refers to storing genetic material, but it doesn't explain genetic variability itself.
Final Answer:
A and R are correct. R is not the correct explanation of A.
Final Answer:
A and R are correct. R is not the correct explanation of A.
