GM plants, whose genes have been altered by manipulation, are useful in many ways. Match column-I (genetic modification) to column-II (example) and choose the correct option:
Column I | Column II | ||
(A) | Reduce reliance on chemical pesticides | (I) | Salt tolerant transgenic tomato |
(B) | Enhanced nutritional value of food | (II) | Flavr - Savr tomato |
(C) | Reduce post harvest losses. | (III) | Nematode resistant tobacco plant |
(D) | Tolerant to abiotic stresses | (IV) | Golden rice |
Text Solution

A nematode Meloidogyne incognita infects the roots of tobacco plants and causes a great reduction in use of chemical pesticides.
Genetic modification enhanced nutritional value of food, e.g., golden rice, i.e., Vitamin 'A' enriched rice. Flavr savr tomato helps to reduce post harvest losses. Salt tolerant transgenic tomato is tolerant to abiotic stresses.
