a.
To explain:
The number of chromosomes progeny resulting from einkorn wheat and emmer wheat.
Introduction:
Ancestors of wheat had smaller seeds, so to increase the size of the seeds in wheat, researchers have conducted hybridization using different wild species. As a consequence of hybridization, modern day wheat is hexaploid.
b.
To explain:
The number of chromosomes progeny resulting from bread wheat and emmer wheat.
Introduction:
Ancestors of wheat had smaller seeds, so to increase the size of the seeds in wheat, researchers have conducted hybridization using different wild species. As a consequence of hybridization, modern day wheat is hexaploid.
