Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
First man made cereal is Triticale, produced by hybridization between Triricum and Secale cereale (Rye). Triricale is produced by hybridization between Triticum durum (4n) and Secale cereale (2n) and then it is a hexaploid Triticale. When it is produced by hybridization between Triticum aestivum and Secale cereale, it is octoploid in nature.
