discuss 2 main limitations of plant hybridisation programme.
Few limitations of plant hybridisation programme includes
(i) Availability of a limited number of identified disease resistant genes that are present in various crop varieties or wild relatives.
(ii) Compatibility of the parents plant involved.
(iii) Time consuming and tedious process
iv) Expensive in terms of hybrid seeds generation.
v) Somatic hybrids produced as part of plant hybridisation programme show genetic instability, which may be an inherent feature of some species combinations.
