• A. A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II
• B. A-IV, B-I, C-II, D-III
• C. A-I, B-II, C-III, D-IV
• D. A-II, B-IV, C-I, D-III

Hint:

Pod borer of gram is Helicoverpa armigera, white fly is Bemisia tabaci, and cut worm is Agrotis ipsilon.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Concept:
Insect pests are identified by their common names and scientific names.

Step 1: Pod borer of gram.
Pod borer of gram is: \[ \textit{Helicoverpa armigera} \] So, \[ A\rightarrow III \]

Step 2: White fly.
White fly is: \[ \textit{Bemisia tabaci} \] So, \[ B\rightarrow IV \]

Step 3: Cut worm.
Cut worm is: \[ \textit{Agrotis ipsilon} \] So, \[ C\rightarrow I \]

Step 4: Thrips.
Thrips is: \[ \textit{Caliothrips indicus} \] So, \[ D\rightarrow II \] Therefore: \[ A-III,\ B-IV,\ C-I,\ D-II \] \[ \therefore \text{Correct Answer is (A)} \]
