Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) strains have been used for designing novel:
1. Bioinsecticidal plants
2. Bio-mineralization processes
3. Biofertilizers
4. Bio-metallurgical techniques
Match the items in column "A' and coloum 'B' and choose the correct answer
Column I | Column II |
A. Lady bird | (i) Methano bacterium |
B. Mycorrhiza | (ii) Trichoderma |
C. Biological control | (iii) Aphids |
D. Biogas | (iv) Glomus |
The correct answer is
A | B | C | D | |
(1) | ii | iv | iii | i |
(2) | iii | iv | ii | i |

(4) | iii | ii | i | iv |
Which one of the following pairs is not correctly matched:
1. Serratia – Drug addiction
2. Spirulina – Single-cell protein
3. Rhizobium – Biofertilizer
4. Streptomyces – Antibiotic
An example of endomycorrhiza is:
1. Glomus
2. Agaricus
3. Rhizobium
4. Nostoc
1. Rhizobium
2. Frankia
3. Anabaena
4. Glomus
1. Rhizobium
2. Nostoc
3. Mycorrhiza
4. Agrobacterium
Mycorrhiza does not help the host plant in
1. enhancing its phosphorus uptake capacity
2. increasing its tolerance to drought
3. enhancing its resistance to root pathogens
4. increasing its resistance to insects
Which one of the following is not a nitrogen-fixing organism?
1. Anabaena
2. Nostoc
3. Azotobacter
4. Pseudomonas
Among the following pairs of microbes, which pair has both the microbes that can be used as biofertilizers?
1. Aspergillus and Rhizopus
2. Rhizobium and Rhizopus
3. Cyanobacteria and Rhizobium
4. Aspergillus and Cyanobacteria
Which one of the following microbes forms a symbiotic association with plants and helps them in their nutrition?
1. Azotobacter
2. Aspergillus
3. Glomus
4. Trichoderma
