Q162 / 200 · NEET 2024 · Zoology

The "Ti plasmid" of Agrobacterium tumefaciens stands for

A
Tumor independent plasmid
Correct answer
B
Tumor inducing plasmid
C
Temperature independent plasmid
D
Tumour inhibiting plasmid

Solution

The correct answer is option (2) as Ti plasmid of Agrobacterium tumefaciens is tumor inducing plasmid, containing T-DNA which causes tumor in several dicot plants. Options (1), (3) and (4) are not correct.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
