Reason of fast speciation in present day crop plants is:
Reason of fast speciation in present day crop plants is:
Updated On: May 12, 2022
- mutation
- isolation
- polyploidy
- sexual reproduction
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
Polyploidy causes fast speciation as it leads to complete reproductive isolation of an individual from other gene pools.

Concepts Used:
Non-Mendelian Genetics
The term - non-mendelian inheritance refers to any pattern of heredity in which features do not separate according to Mendel's laws. These principles describe how features linked with single genes on chromosomes in the nucleus are passed down through generations.
Types of Non-Mendelian Inheritance
Codominance Inheritance
It is a form of incomplete dominance in which both alleles for the same feature are expressed in the heterozygote at the same time. For example, the MN blood types of humans.
Incomplete Dominance
In a heterozygote, the dominant allele does not always completely cover the phenotypic expression of the recessive gene, resulting in an intermediate phenotype which is referred to as "incomplete dominance”.
