Which of the following is considered a microbial pesticide or biorational?

  1. Herbicides

  2. Fungicides

  3. Insecticides

  4. Bacteria, viruses, and fungi used to control pests

The correct answer is: Bacteria, viruses, and fungi used to control pests

Microbial pesticides or biorationals are derived from living organisms such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi that control pests. These natural organisms can be effective in managing pest populations while being less harmful to the environment compared to traditional chemical pesticides. Unlike herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides which are chemical-based, microbial pesticides offer a more sustainable and environmentally friendly approach to pest control. Therefore, option D is the correct choice as it aligns with the characteristics of microbial pesticides.
