According to Vavilov, mango, nobel canes, rice and brinjal are some of the crop plants originated in :

  • A.Hindustan centre
  • B.Abyssynian centre
  • C.Asia minor centre
  • D.China centre

Answer: A

These crops originated in the Hindustan centre.

Vavilov's Indian (Hindustan, or Indo-Burma) centre of origin is credited with rice, mango, the noble canes (Saccharum officinarum, sugarcane), brinjal (eggplant), cucumber, black pepper and many pulses.

The Abyssinian centre is associated with crops such as coffee, teff, sorghum and durum wheat. The Asia Minor (Near Eastern) centre gave wheats, barley, lentil and fig. The China centre gave soybean, tea, many millets and peach. None of them is the home of mango and noble canes.
