Answer» Somaclones: These are produced through micro-propagation or tissue culture. They are genetically identical to the parent plant, e.g., APPLE, tomato or banana. SOMATIC hybrids: These are produced by fusion of protoplast of TWO different plants. They are genetically DISSIMILAR e.g., Pomato (hybrid of potato and tomato). |
