Question

A farmer produces two types of corn plants. One has larger sized kernels but fewer yields and another has smaller sized kernels with high yield. He wants to produce a corn plant with larger sized kernels with high yield.
Which of these methods would be applicable for this?



A. Eliminate the gene for lesser yield from the genome of larger sized kernels and eliminate the gene for smaller sized kernels from the other corn variety.


B. Insert the genome responsible for larger sized kernels into the gene of the corn with smaller sized kernels and a high yield.


C. Insert the gene
