The cross between F1 hybrid and one of it parents is known as:

  • A.single cross
  • B.population cross
  • C.backcross
  • D.top cross

Answer: C

A backcross is the cross between an F1 hybrid and one of its parents. It is used to transfer a trait into the recurrent parent.

A single cross is between two inbred lines, a top cross is between a line and an open-pollinated variety, and a population cross is between two populations.

A backcross is made to restore or transfer characters of a parent into a hybrid line, and repeated backcrosses are used to transfer one gene into an elite variety. The cross between two inbred lines is called a single cross.
