In light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.
Show Hint
Because tall coconuts are outbreeders, they show high genetic heterozygosity and variation in the field.
Dwarf coconuts, being inbreeders, are highly homozygous and produce uniform offspring, making them useful parents for producing high-yielding $T \times D$ or $D \times T$ hybrids.
