Ti plasmid used for tumerogenesis in making transgenic plants belong to Agrobacterium tumificiens.

In plant genetic engineering, the Ti plasmid can be used to carry foreign genes into plant cells. The Ti plasmid is the disease-causing agent of the soil-borne bacteria Agrobacterium tumefaciens. The Ti plasmid was then used to transform petunia cells in culture. So, the correct option is "D" (T1 plasmid transforms cells of plants).

Agrobacterium is a genus of Gram-negative bacteria that causes tumors in plants. Agrobacterium tumefaciens is the most commonly studied species in this genus. It contains "Ti" plasmid or tumor inducing plasmid, that causes  crown-gall disease in plants. The disease is characterised by a tumour-like growth or gall on the infected plant, often at the junction between the root and the shoot. Tumors are incited by the conjugative transfer of a DNA segment (T-DNA) from the bacterial tumour-inducing (Ti) plasmid to the plant cell naturally when the bacterium infects the plant through  a wound.

Golden rice is a transgenic variety of rice (Oryza Sativa) which contains good quantities of $\beta$-carotene ( provitamin A- inactive state of vitamin A). $\beta$-carotene is a principle source of vitamin A. Since the grains (seeds) of the rice are yellow in colour due to $\beta$-carotene, the rice is commonly called golden rice. 

Flavr Savr is a genetically modified tomato  for human consumption. The transgenic plant 'Flavr Savr' tomato carries an artificial gene for slowing down the ripening process of the tomato and thus prevent it from softening and retains its natural colour , flavour and its shelf life. 

Golden rice is a variety of rice (Oryza sativa) produced through genetic engineering to biosynthesize beta-carotene, a precursor of vitamin A, in the edible parts of rice.

• Xanthomonas campestris causes bacterial blight of rice which is one of the most important diseases of rice in most of the rice-growing countries. Bacterial blight of rice has high epidemic potential and is destructive to high-yielding cultivars in both temperate and tropical regions especially in Asia.
• IR8 is a high-yielding semi-dwarf rice variety developed by the International Rice Research Institute (IRRI) in the early 1960s. It is the resistant variety of rice to bacterial blight.
  

So, the correct answer is 'IR-8'

Transgenic plants are plants that have been genetically engineered, a breeding approach that uses recombinant DNA techniques to create plants with new characteristics. They are identified as a class of genetically modified organism (GMO). In this case, firefly's gene is transferred to the plant, hence the plant is called transgenic plant.

Transgenic tomato has been genetically engineered to have resistance to abiotic stress.

In Tobacco because of  biotechnology, transgenic plants produced which have low nicotine in their leaves. 

There are several methods for introducing genes into plants, including:

•     Infecting plant cells with plasmids as vectors carrying the desired gene.
•     Shooting microscopic pellets containing the gene directly into the cell.

In contrast to animals, there is no real distinction between somatic cells and germline cells. Somatic tissues of plants, e.g., root cells grown in culture

•     can be transformed in the laboratory with the desired gene;
•     grown into mature plants with flowers.

If all goes well, the transgene will be incorporated into the pollen and eggs and passed on to the next generation.
In this respect, it is easier to produce transgenic plants than transgenic animals.
 Progress is being made on several fronts to introduce new traits into plants using recombinant DNA technology.
The genetic manipulation of plants has been going on since the dawn of agriculture, but until recently this has required the slow and tedious process of cross-breeding varieties. Genetic engineering promises to speed the process and broaden the scope of what can be done.

Transgenic tomato plants expressing a truncated insect control protein gene from Bacillus thuringiensis were  protected from attack by tobacco hornworm, tobacco budworm and tomato fruit worm larvae. Filed tests involving transgenic tomato lines challenged with tobacco hornworm, tomato fruit worm and tomato pin worm were conducted for two years. These transgenic plants suffered only minor feeding damage from tobacco hornworm, while the untransformed controls were completely defoliated. The foreign gene present had made this possible.

A tumor (crown gall) inducing plasmid widely used in the production of transgenic plants is Agrobacterium tumefaciens. Bacillus thuringiensis is used for the production of disease-resistant plants. Other 2 are disease-causing bacteria.

The tobacco plant was genetically modified by introducing a gene to produce antibodies. The plant was introduced with the gene for producing antibodies against the rabies virus which are similar to the antibodies produced in the humans. The antibodies from the plant can be purified and used as injections or vaccines. These vaccines help in providing immunity against the rabies virus. 

CRRI develops new rice varieties and rice crop management techniques that help rice farmers improve the yield and quality of their rice in an environmentally sustainable way. The Institute works with its public and private sector partners in national agricultural research and extension systems in major rice-growing countries to do research, training, and knowledge transfer. It is situated in Cuttack, India. Thus, option B is correct.

Plant transformation mediated by the soil-plant pathogen Agrobacterium tumefaciens has become the most used method for plant transformation. A. tumefaciens naturally infects the wound sites in dicotyledonous plant causing the formation of the crown gall tumours. A. tumefaciensis is capable of transferring a particular DNA segment (T-DNA) of the tumour-inducing (Ti) plasmid into the nucleus of infected cells where it is subsequently integrated into the host genome and transcribed, causing the crown gall disease.

• Transgenic plants are those plants whose genome is altered by the addition of one or more transgenes. Tobacco plant is the most common plant for expressing the transgenes. As the genome of tobacco plant is completely studied. The transgenic plants are transcribed in such a way that they develop tolerance against stress, salt, herbicide and also for vaccine productions. There are several transgenes which are inserted in tobacco plant like cry2Aa gene which gives resistance against any worms.
  
• The Meloidogyne does not perform the conversion of sites like pre-RISC to RISC. The Meloidogyne gene is obtained by the species Meloidegyne incognita which are mainly responsible for causing root knot in plants.
• Therefore the correct answer is option "A".

A transgenic crop plant contains a gene or genes which have been artificially inserted instead of the plant acquiring them through pollination. The inserted gene sequence (known as the transgene) may come from another unrelated plant or from a completely different species. In many cases, the inserted DNA has to be modified slightly in order to correctly and efficiently express in the host organism. The pomato is a chimera produced by grafting a tomato plant and a potato plant, both of which are members of the Solanaceae family. Pomato plants make food production more efficient, as they maximize the amount of crops that can be produced on a piece of land. In addition, grafting can improve resistance to bacteria, viruses and fungi, attract a more diverse group of pollinators and provide a sturdy trunk for delicate ornamental plants.

Transgenic plants are generated with the help of recombinant DNA technology (RDT). Recombinant DNA is a DNA that constitute genes or parts of genes from two or more organisms, usually of different species (or is specifically the gene of interest). Thus, transgenic plants are generated by incorporating foreign DNA into the target organism, and it helps in the formation of the transgenic plant. Transgenic plants are also known as the GMO as the process of genetic engineering and RDT plays an important role in their development.

Genetically modified crops (GMCs, GM crops, or biotech crops) are plants used in agriculture, the DNA of which has been modified using genetic engineering techniques. In most cases, the aim is to introduce a new trait to the plant which does not occur naturally in the species. For example, in food crops include resistance to certain pests, diseases or environmental conditions, reduction of spoilage, resistance to chemical treatments (e.g., resistance to a herbicide) or improving the nutrient profile of the crop. GM mustard is being developed to increase the productivity of mustard to meet the ever-growing demand for edible oil in the country. Bt cotton is a genetically modified variety of cotton producing an insecticide. It is produced by Monsanto. It is supplied in India's Maharashtra state.

A Ti or tumour inducing plasmid is a circular plasmid that is a part of the genetic equipment that Agrobacterium tumefaciens and Agrobacterium rhizogenes use to transduce its genetic material to plants. The Ti plasmid is lost when Agrobacterium is grown above 28$^o$C. Such, cured bacteria do not induce crown galls, i.e., they become avirulent.

Night blindness is the inability to see normally in subdued light. It is usually a result of vitamin A deficiency. Golden rice is such a biofortified crop. Golden rice grains are easily recognisable by their yellow to orange colour. The stronger the colour the more carotene. Rice produces provitamin A (carotene) in the leaves but not in the grain, where the biosynthetic pathway is turned off during plant development. In golden rice, two genes have been inserted into the rice genome by genetic engineering, to restart the carotenoid biosynthetic pathway leading to the production and accumulation of carotene in the grains. Both genes are naturally involved in carotene biosynthesis. 

Golden rice is a variety of rice (Oryza sativa) produced through genetic engineering to biosynthesize beta-carotene, a precursor of vitamin A, in the edible parts of rice. The research was conducted with the goal of producing a fortified food to be grown and consumed in areas with a shortage of dietary vitamin A, a deficiency which is estimated to kill 670,000 children under the age of 5 each year.
Golden rice differs from its parental strain by the addition of three beta-carotene biosynthesis genes. 

Golden rice is yellow coloured enriched with pro-vitamin A (by introducing the genes).

A transgenic plant is a plant, with an insertion of DNA from another organism. This technology can be used as a tool for researchers to insert useful genes as a means of improving crops.

Golden rice is a variety of Oryza sativa rice produced through genetic to biosynthesize beta-carotene, a precursor of vitamin-A in the edible part of rice. The research that led to golden rice was conducted with the goal of helping children who suffer from vitamin A.

Golden rice is a variety of rice produced through genetic engineering to biosynthesize beta-carotene, a precursor of vitamin A, in the edible parts of rice.

The principle of developing transgenic plants and animals is to introduce the gene of interest into the nucleus to germ cell.

Bt corn varieties, for example, contain a gene from a bacterium found in the soil that causes the transgenic corn to produce an insecticidal protein.

golden rice is a genetically modified crop plant where the incorporated gene. Golden rice is a variety of rice produced through genetic engineering to biosynthesize beta-carotene, a precursor of vitamin A, in the edible parts of rice.

RNA interference is a gene-silencing process that blocks the expression of genes in the parasite when it enters the host's body.RNA is a method adopted to prevent infestation of roots of tobacco plants by a nematode Meloidogyne incognita. In RNA, a complementary RNA binds to mRNA to form a ds RNA that cannot translate and hence, its expression is blocked.

Roots of the tobacco plants are infected by Meloidogyne incognita. RNA I method is used to develop resistance in these plants against infection.
