Hint:

Late Blight: Potato (Phytophthora); Leaf Blight: Rice (Xanthomonas); Downy Mildew: Grapes (Plasmopara); Powdery Mildew: Wheat (Blumeria).

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

The crop diseases are matched with their causal organisms as follows:
- (A) Late Blight of Potato (II - {Phytophthora infestans): A fungal disease caused by {Phytophthora infestans, leading to tuber rot and leaf lesions.
- (B) Bacterial Leaf Blight of Rice (I - {Xanthomonas oryzae): A bacterial disease caused by {Xanthomonas oryzae, causing leaf wilting and yield loss.
- (C) Downy Mildew of Grapes (III - {Plasmopara viticola): A fungal disease caused by {Plasmopara viticola, affecting grape leaves and fruit.
- (D) Powdery Mildew of Wheat (IV - {Blumeria graminis): A fungal disease caused by {Blumeria graminis, producing white powdery spots on leaves.
The correct pairing is (A) - (II), (B) - (I), (C) - (III), (D) - (IV), making option (4) correct. Note: This is a placeholder, as the original question referenced an image (108.png).
