A. has yielded interesting results and attracted the attention
B. has yielded results of interest and has attracted the attention
C. has yielded interesting results and have attracted the attention
The above choices have an SV error, since the subject (efforts) is plural and requires plural verb. “Has” here is singular. Eliminate A, B and C.
E. have yielded results of interest and have attracted the attention — “results of interest” is not as stylistic as “interesting results”. Concision matters here. Eliminate this in favour of D.

A. has yielded interesting results and attracted the attention -> Efforts (plural subject) require plural verb (have). Incorrect to use "has".
B. has yielded results of interest and has attracted the attention -> Efforts (plural subject) require plural verb (have). Incorrect to use "has".
C. has yielded interesting results and have attracted the attention -> Efforts (plural subject) require plural verb (have). Incorrect to use "has".
D. have yielded interesting results and attracted the attention -> Subject verb agreement issue is resolved now. We have "yielded interesting results" and "attracted the attention of something" are parallel and meaning wise makes sense. Let's keep it
E. have yielded results of interest and have attracted the attention -> we have "yielded results of interest " and "attracted the attention of something (noun)" seems issue with the meaning. We can say, D is still better than E.
So, I think D.
