Read the following and answer any four questions from $(i)$ to $(v)$ given below:
Crown gall is a neoplastic disease of most dicotyledonous plants and is caused by the soil bacterium Agrobacterium tumefaciens. A large extra chromosomal plasmid in these bacteria was found to be responsible for this disease. The plasmid is known as $Ti$ plasmid. Bacteria free crown gall cells can be cultured in the absence of phytohormones. $Ti$ plasmid is widely used in genetic engineering to deliver the desirable genes. The part of Ti plasmid transferred into plant cell $\text{DNA}$ is called $T-\text{DNA}. T-\text{DNA}$ with desired $\text{DNA}$ segment is inserted into the chromosome of the host plant where it produces copies of itself.
  1. Which of the following is the full full of $T- \text{DNA}$?
  1. Transfer $\text{DNA}$.
  2. Tumour inducing $\text{DNA}$.
  3. Transgenic $\text{DNA}$.
  4. None of these.
  1. Ti plasmid cannot infect and develop crown gall in,
  1. Tomato.
  2. Maize.
  3. Soybean.
  4. sunflower.
  1. While making transgenic plant, $T- \text{DNA}$ is inserted into the host cell, it is then:
  1. Integrated into the target host genome.
  2. Lie independent of the host genome.
  3. Rupture the host cell wall.
  4. Produce oncogenic factors in the host.
  1. Agrobacterium mediated gene transfer in plants:
  1. Allows relatively large segment of $\text{DNA}$.
  2. Transfer of $\text{DNA}$ with defined ends and minimal rearrangement.
  3. High quality and fertility in transgenic plants.
  4. All of these.
  1. Assertion : In Agrobacterium mediated gene transfer in plants, transgenic plants do not develop tumors.
Reason : In $T- \text{DNA}$ tumor producing genes are deleted during the process of gene transfer.
  1. Both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
  2. Both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
  3. Assertion is true but reason is false.
  4. Both assertion and reason are false.
