Vedclass · Answer

(D) According to the rules of binomial nomenclature:$1$. The scientific name consists of two parts: the genus name and the specific epithet.$2$. The genus name starts with a capital letter, and the specific epithet starts with a small letter.$3$. Therefore, $Solanum\, tuberosum$ is correctly written.$4$. $Solanum\, Tuberosum$ is incorrect because the specific epithet starts with a capital letter.$5$. $Solanum\, tuberosum\, Linn.$ is also considered correct as it includes the name of the author (Linnaeus) who first described the species, written in an abbreviated form after the specific epithet.$6$. Since both $A$ and $C$ follow the standard conventions, the correct answer is $D$.
