Mark whether the following statements are true or false. (i) Entire collection of plants or seeds having all the diverse alleles for all genes in a given crop is called gene pool. (ii) A wide range of pathogens affect the yield of cultivated crop species, especially in tropical climates. (iii) High aspartic acid, low nitrogen and sugar content in maize lead to resistance to aphids. (iv) Biofortification is the most practical means to improve public health.
