This question was previously asked in
CUET PG 2026 Agri-Business Management Question Paper (25-Mar-2026) (Shift 2)
The correct answer is
A-I, B-II, C-IV, D-III

The question requires matching fruits from List-I with corresponding horticultural techniques or biological phenomena from List-II.

Matching Fruit Varieties with Horticultural Techniques

A. Mango - I. Cagging technique

The Cagging technique (bagging) is employed in mango cultivation, particularly in breeding programs. It involves covering the flowers or inflorescences to prevent unwanted cross-pollination by insects or wind, ensuring controlled pollination for specific genetic outcomes.

B. Fig - II. Caprification

Caprification is essential for the proper development of certain edible fig varieties. This process involves the introduction of the fig wasp (Blastophaga psenes) and male caprifigs into orchards of cultivated figs, facilitating pollination required for fruit development.

C. Papaya - IV. Sibmating

Sibmating refers to the mating of closely related individuals. In papaya breeding, controlled sibmating might be used strategically within breeding programs to study genetic traits or increase homozygosity, despite the risks of inbreeding depression.

D. Sapota - III. Protandry

Sapota flowers exhibit Protandry, a condition where the male reproductive organs (anthers) mature and release pollen before the female reproductive organ (stigma) of the same flower becomes receptive. This promotes cross-pollination.

Conclusion

Based on the established matches:

  • Mango (A) matches with Cagging technique (I).
  • Fig (B) matches with Caprification (II).
  • Papaya (C) matches with Sibmating (IV).
  • Sapota (D) matches with Protandry (III).

This corresponds to the option A-I, B-II, C-IV, D-III.

Therefore, the correct answer is Option C.
