Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
D
First, isolate single cells from two different plant varieties.
Use enzymes (cellulase/pectinase) for the digestion of cell walls.
This results in the isolation of naked protoplasts (cells without walls).
Perform fusion of protoplasts to create a hybrid cell.
(E) Finally, the hybrid protoplast is grown (using tissue culture) to form a new plant.
