D. E,C,A,D,B

Answer

To identify the correct sequence of events in the procedure of hybridization, we can break down the steps as follows:

1. **Selecting of Parents (E)**: The first step in hybridization is to select the appropriate parents. This is crucial as we need to choose genetically dissimilar parents that possess desirable traits for the hybrid.

2. **Emasculation (C)**: The second step is emasculation, which involves the removal of anthers from the flower of the female parent. This step is important to prevent self-fertilization and ensure that the flower can only be fertilized by pollen from the male parent.

3. **Bagging (A)**: After emasculation, the next step is bagging. This involves covering the emasculated flower with a bag to protect it from unwanted pollen and environmental factors, ensuring that only the desired pollen will fertilize it.

4. **Collection of Pollen (D)**: The fourth step is the collection of pollen from the male parent. This pollen will be used to fertilize the emasculated flower of the female parent.

5. **Tagging (B)**: Finally, tagging is done. This involves labeling the emasculated flower with relevant information such as the date of pollination and details about the male and female parents. This helps in keeping track of the hybridization process.

Putting these steps together, the correct sequence is:
- **E (Selecting of Parents)**
- **C (Emasculation)**
- **A (Bagging)**
- **D (Collection of Pollen)**
- **B (Tagging)**

Thus, the correct sequence of events in relation to the procedure of hybridization is **E, C, A, D, B**.
