    Given below are a few statements regarding somatic hybridisation. Choose the correct statements. (i) Protoplasts of different cells of the same plant are fused. (ii) Protoplasts from cells of different species can fused. (iii) Treatment of cell with cellulase and pectinase mandatory. (iv) The hybrid protoplast contains characters of only one parential protoplast.

    Assertion : Somatic hybridisation is a process where protoplasts of two desired plants can be fused to develop improved plants Reason : Cross breeding can also induce variability
