  1. Match the products in group 1 with their producer organisms given in group 2 ​​
    Group 1​ ​​
    P. ​Ethanol ​​
    Q.​ L-Lysine ​​
    R.​ Biopesticide ​​
    S.​ Vancomycin ​​
    Group 2
    ​​1.​ Streptomyces orientalis ​​
    2.​ Saccharomyces cerevisiae
    ​​3.​ Corynebacterium glutamicum ​​
    4. ​Bacillus thuringiensis
    1. P-2, Q-3, R-4, S-1
    2. P-3, Q-4, R-1, S-2
    3. P-4, Q-1, R-2, S-3
    4. P-2, Q-1, R-4, S-3
Correct Option: A

P>2 :​ Saccharomyces cerevisiae is used extensively in batch fermentations to convert sugars to ethanol for the production of beverages and biofuels. ​​
Q>3 :​ Industrially, L-lysine is usually manufa-ctured by a fermentation process using Corynebacterium glutamicum ​​
R>4 : Bacillus thuringiensis (or Bt) is a Gram-positive, soil-dwelling bacterium, commonly used as a biological pesticide. ​​
S>1 : Streptomyces orientalis produces the antibiotic Vancomycin, which is used for the prevention and treatment of infections caused by Gram-positive bacteria, especially staphylococci. ​
