Answer: Option C

The first transgenic crop commercially cultivated in our country is Cotton.
Bt cotton was approved by the Government of India in March 2002 as the first transgenic crop for commercial cultivation for three years. Bt cotton plants contain one or more foreign genes derived from the soil-dwelling bacterium, Bacillus thuringiensis.
Apart from cotton, there are more than 20 crops under research and development in about 50 public and private sector organizations in India.
