Q. Transgenic plants are the ones:
A) generated by introducing foreign DNA into a cell and regenerating a plant from that cell.
B) produced after protoplast fusion in artificial medium.
C) grown in artificial medium after hybridization in the field.
D) produced by a somatic embryo in artificial medium.
Explanation
[Solution from source] Transgenic (GM) plants carry a foreign gene that was introduced into a cell, from which a whole plant is regenerated. Protoplast fusion produces somatic hybrids, not transgenic plants. Answer (1).
