Correct answer is (a) Protoplast fusion

Easy explanation: Protoplast fusion is a technique where the whole genome is transferred from one organism to another one. rDNA is the fusion of DNA using specific enzyme. Induced mutations are the changes in base pairs of DNA. Conjugation is the transfer of genetic material.
