The correct Answer is:
To determine the correct matching of plant diseases and their causative agents, we will analyze each option step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze the first option - Potato and Late Blight - The disease associated with potato is **Late Blight**. - The causative agent of Late Blight in potatoes is **Phytophthora infestans**. - The option states **Fusarium udum**, which is incorrect. **Hint:** Remember that Late Blight is specifically caused by Phytophthora infestans. ### Step 2: Analyze the second option - Citrus and Canker - The disease associated with citrus is **Citrus Canker**. - The causative agent of Citrus Canker is **Xanthomonas citri**. - The option states **Pseudomonas**, which is incorrect. **Hint:** Citrus Canker is linked to Xanthomonas citri, not Pseudomonas. ### Step 3: Analyze the third option - Brinjal and Root Knot - The disease associated with brinjal (or eggplant) is **Root Knot**. - The causative agent of Root Knot disease is the nematode **Meloidogyne incognita**. - The option correctly matches Root Knot with Meloidogyne incognita. **Hint:** Root Knot disease is caused by nematodes, specifically Meloidogyne incognita. ### Step 4: Analyze the fourth option - Pigeon Pea and Seed Gall - The disease associated with pigeon pea is **Seed Gall**. - The causative agent of Seed Gall disease is **Fusarium udum**. - The option incorrectly states **Phytophthora infestans**, which is not the correct causative agent for Seed Gall in pigeon pea. **Hint:** Seed Gall in pigeon pea is caused by Fusarium udum. ### Conclusion After analyzing all the options, the only correct matching is: - **Brinjal (Eggplant) - Root Knot - Meloidogyne incognita** Thus, the correct answer is **Option C**.
