(<strong>Seed</strong> <strong>Health</strong> <strong>Management</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>Better</strong> <strong>Productivity</strong>)‣ Some resistant donors <strong>for</strong> mungbean yellow mosaic virus have been identified i.e. UPU-1,UPU-2,UPU-3, UG-370, PDU-104, NDU-88-8, UG-737, and UG-774. The varieties thusevolved include PU-19, PU- 30, and PU-35., Manikya, resistant lines/cultivars identified: ML-62, ML-65, Pant M-4, Pant M-5, ML-131, NDM 88-14, ML-682, PDM-27, ML- 15, ML-803, ML-682 and 11/ 395 and <strong>for</strong> Urdbean leaf crinkle virus, SHU 9504, -9513,-9515, -9516, -9520, -9522, -9528, KU 96-1, UG 737 and TPU-4.‣ <strong>Seed</strong> treatment with carbendazim (0.1%) followed by two prophylactic sprays of carbendazim(0, 05%) or Dithane M-45 @ 0.25% was found most effective in reducing disease severity ofanthracnose disease. In early sown crop high disease severity was observed while in latesown crop low disease severity was recorded. Inter cropping with cereals or pulses have noeffect on anthracnose severity.‣ Propiconazol 0.1%, carbendazim 0.1%, hexaconazol 0.1%, mancozeb 0.25% sprayed plotshave low disease severity and high grain yield against Cercospora leaf spot.‣ Studies on integrated management of wilt/root rot/collar rot showed that <strong>Seed</strong> treatment withfungicide alone or in combination with other fungicides/ bio agents were found effective.Among the fungicides seed treatment with Bavistin + Thiram (1:2), vitavax + Thiram (1:2),vitavax, Bavistin, Bayleton, Bio agent Gliocladium virens + Vitavax and Pseudomonasfluorescence) decreased the seedling mortality, improved germ inability, plant stand and yield.‣ Ten thousand germplasm lines/ breeding populations F 2 , F 3,F 4 and F 5 generations were screened. Many germplasm/accessions were found resistant/ tolerant to Botrytis graymould viz; ICC 1069, ICC 10302, ICCL 87322, ICC 1599, -15980, - 8529, ICCV 88510, E100Y (M) BG 256, BG261,H86-73, IGCP 6 and GNG 146.‣ Lentil entries evaluated under sick plot <strong>for</strong> wilt/root rot/ collarrot diseases. The following lines were found promising viz;LL 383, PL 81-17, LH 54-8, DPL-58, DPL 14, Jawahar Massor- 3, DPL 112, IPL-114, L 4147and Pant L 639.‣ The promising germplasm lines/ cultivars are as follows: DPL 62, PL-406, L 4076, TL 717, E153, IPL 101, IPL 105, PL- 639, LH 84-8, and Precoz .‣ The field pea lines were found promising JP 141, Pant P-5, KFPD 24 (swati), HUDP 15, KFPD-2, HFP-4, P1361, EC-1, P-632, P 108-1, KPMR 444, KF 9412, DPR 48, T-10, KPMRD348,DDR13, IM9102, KFP 141 and KPMR 467 against powdery mildew and JP 141, Pant P-5, P10, FP 141, KDMRD 384, HUDP-9, HUP-2 and T-10 were found promising against rustdisease.‣ Mid-September planting or early October planting of rapeseed-mustard has been found toescape from Alternaria blight (Alternaria brassicae) downy mildew (Peronospora parasitica)and white rust (Albugo candida) diseases as against mid and late October planting. In general- 20 -
(<strong>Seed</strong> <strong>Health</strong> <strong>Management</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>Better</strong> <strong>Productivity</strong>)high occurrence of the floral infection (staghead phase) of white rust and downy mildew duringflowering period has been found to be associated with reduced period, i.e. 2-6 hours, of brightsunshine/day concomitant with the mean maximum temperature of 21-25 0 C, the meanminimum temperature of 6-10 0 C and higher total rainfall up to 166 mm. Bright sunshine hours/day has a significant negative correlation whereas total rainfall has a significant positivecorrelation with staghead development.‣ All the three important foliar diseases of rapeseed-mustard could be effectively controlled byfollowing integrated package of balanced N 100 P 40 K 40 application, early October sowing andtreating the seed with Apron 35 SD @ 6g kg -1 seed followed by spray of mixture of metalaxyl +mancozeb (i.e Ridomil MZ 72 WP @ 0.25%) at flowering stage and by spray of mancozeb oriprodione @ 0.2% at pod <strong>for</strong>mation stage. In situations where Sclerotinia stem rot and / orpowdery mildew appeared to be important in a particular crop season, a spray of mixture ofcarbendazim (0.05%) + mancozeb (0.2%) was found to give excellent cost effective control ofthe diseases with significant increase in seed yield of the crop.‣ Among the botanicals, leaf extracts of Eucalyptus globosus (5%) and Azadirchta indica (5%)have been proved to exhibit greater antifungal activity against A. brassicae and Albugocandida and showed significant reduction in the severity of Alternaria blight and white rustdiseases which was rated to be at par with mancozeb fungicide spray.‣ Some abiotic chemical nutrient salts such as calcium sulphate (1%), zinc sulphate(0.1%) andborax (0.5%) and biocontrol agents such as Trichoderma harzianum and non-aggressive Dpathotype of A.brassicae have been shown to induce systemic host resistance in mustardagainst aggressive “A” pathotype of A. brassicae and virulent race(s) of A. candida.‣ The staghead phase in B. juncea has been investigated to be due to A. candida and not due P.parasitica. Tissues at the staghead phase become more susceptible to P. parasitica thannormal tissues of the same plant.‣ B. juncea genotypes (EC 399296, EC 399299, EC 399301, EC 399313, PAB-9535, DivyaSelection-2 and PAB 9511), B. napus genotypes (EC 338997, BNS-4) and B. carinata (PBC-9221) have been shown to possess resistance to white rust coupled with high degree oftolerance to Alternaria blight. Reduced sporulation is identified to be the major component <strong>for</strong>slow blighting.‣ B. juncea (RESJ 836), B. rapa (RESR 219) and B. napus (EC 339000) have been selected <strong>for</strong>resistance to downy mildew and <strong>for</strong> high yield per<strong>for</strong>mance. Total 52 genotypes of mustardrepresenting at least 12 differential resistance sources, 23 lines of yellow sarson representing6 differential resistance sources and 54 lines of B. napus representing 3 differential resistancesources to downy mildew have been identified.‣ A new short duration (95-100 days) short statured (85- 96 cm) plant type of mustard strain‘DIVYA’ possessing high degree of tolerance to Alternaria blight suitable <strong>for</strong> intercropping withautumn sown sugarcane and potato yielding with an average of 15-22 q ha -1 has been- 21 -
