Shelterwood cutting is the progressively cutting of the forest, in order to establish the growth of the new generation of the seedlings of a particular species without planting.
It is a method of natural tree reproduction under the shelter of old trees, which are removed successively by cutting the tree in order to provide the increased amount of light to the new seedlings. It is a slow process and takes lot of time.
False crossing over occurs in prophase 1 of meiosis 1. The significance of this crossing over is to ensure cell differentiation. If this occurred in prophase two it means the cells in meiosis 1 will be identical.
