Question

While surveying his apple trees, a farmer discovers a particular tree that produces apples with perfect size, color, and flavor. To reproduce this plant, he removes a twig from the s tree and attaches it to the stem and root system of a growing apple tree in a process called grafting. The tree will continue to grow and will later produce apples.
Why does he use this method instead of planting an apple seed from the tree with ideal apples?

Answer 1

It is because he knew, that was a good breed of plant (High variety)....so he did not want to waste that gene's capacity by hybridization with some other factors....
