Consider the following statements Hybrid seed production process induces 1. production of inbreed lines 2. selection of inbreed lines 3. production of F1 seed. 4. testing of combining ability Select the correct answer:

Answer: Option C

The correct sequence of hybrid seed production is 1, 2, 4 and 3 respectively.
Hybrid seed is produced by cross-pollinated plants. Hybrid seed production is predominant in modern agriculture and home gardening.
Crossing two genetically different plants produce a hybrid seed (plant) using controlled pollination. To produce consistent F₁ hybrids, the original cross must be repeated for each season.
The hybrid seed production process induces the production of inbreed lines, selection of inbreed lines, testing of combining ability and lastly production of F₁ seed.
