Solution

The correct option is C Vavilov
Vavilov worked on global genetic diversity of cultivated plants throughout his life, from which he developed several major theories that have played an important role in the development of botany, genetics and plant breeding. One such theory among several is "Theory of centres of origin of cultivated plants" (1920).
