Detailed explanation-3: -The gene pool is also called plant genetic resources (PGR) or germplasm which could be defined as the sum total of all the alleles influencing a wide range of characters (i.e., the collective hereditary genetic wealth) that a crop has acquired over millions of years under natural conditions.
Detailed explanation-4: -gene pool, sum of a population’s genetic material at a given time. The term typically is used in reference to a population made up of individuals of the same species and includes all genes and combinations of genes (sum of the alleles) in the population.
