Answer:

Sexual reproduction

Explanation:

In asexual reproduction, the same genes are transferred to the next generation because there is no combination of genes takes place so the rate of variation is very less in asexual reproduction and in sexual reproduction combination of different genes from two different parents occurs which give rise to genetic variation.

So when the plant is put in an environment where harmful bacteria are present then it will prefer sexual reproduction to bring variation in its genome so that it can get the ability to fight against these pathogenic bacteria.  

The plants that reproduced asexually will be eradicated by pathogens because they can not get the new genes to fight against the pathogen due to lack of appropriate variation in their gene.

1.
I would say individual biodiversity. I have read that there are variations in genes so genetic variation is a biodiversity along with species diversity and ecosystem biodiversity. In fact, genetic diversity is similar to species diversity. Species have their own genetic variation.

2.
True. We are losing biodiversity at a higher rate than ever before.
