The correct Answer is:
To determine which crop variety is not due to induced mutations, let's analyze each option step by step. 1. **Option A: Reimei of Rice** - Reimei is a variety of rice that was produced by inducing mutations using gamma rays. This means it is a result of induced mutation. - **Conclusion**: This option is not correct. 2. **Option B: Prabhat of Arhar** - Prabhat is an early variety of red gram (Arhar) that is known to be a natural variety. There were no induced mutations involved in its development. - **Conclusion**: This option is correct as it is not due to induced mutations. 3. **Option C: Sharbati Sonora of Wheat** - Sharbati Sonora is a wheat variety that was developed using gamma rays to induce mutations. Therefore, it is a product of induced mutation. - **Conclusion**: This option is not correct. 4. **Option D: Aruna of Castor** - Aruna is a castor variety that was developed through induced mutations using thermal neutrons. Thus, this variety is also a result of induced mutation. - **Conclusion**: This option is not correct. **Final Answer**: The crop variety that is not due to induced mutations is **(b) Prabhat of Arhar**.
