(Seed Health Management for Better Productivity)Propiconazole 0.1%. First spray should be given as soon as disease appear and second sprayafter 15 days of first spray.‣ Rust disease could be effectively controlled with three sprays of Benomyl 0.05%, Mancozeb0.25% or Zineb 0.25%, at 50, 60 and 70 days after sowing. Varieties Ankur, PK-7139, PK-7394, PK-7121, PK-7391 were resistant.‣ Charcoal rot disease can be effectively controlled by seed treatment with Trichodermaharzianum @ 0.2% + vitavax @ 0.1%.‣ Pre-mature drying problem Soybean can be minimized by seed treatment with carbendazim +Thiram (2:1) @ 3g/kg seed followed by two sprays with carbendazim, mancozeb andAureofungin. Varieties PSS-1, PS-1042, PK-1162, PK-1242 and PK-1250 were found to besuperior for premature drying problem.‣ Integrated disease management (IDM) modules based on combined use of cultural practices,fungicides for fungal disease, insecticide for virus disease and host resistance were evaluatedagainst RAB and Soybean yellow Mosaic virus diseases.‣ Bacterial pustules can be successfully controlled by two sprays at 45 and 55 days afterplanting with a mixture of Blitox-50 (1.5 kg/ha) + Agrimycin-100 (150g/ha) or streptocycline(150 g/ha) + copper sulphate (1kg/ha).‣ Soybean yellow Mosaic can be very effectively controlled by four sprays with oxymethyldemoton @ 1l/1000 lit/ha at 20, 30, 40 and 50 days after planting. Soil application with Phorate10G @ 10 kg/ha and Furadan 3G @ 17.5 kg/ha controlled the disease. Varieties PK-1284,1251, 1259, 1043, 1225, 1303, 1314, 1343, 1347, PS-1042 PS-564, 1364 were identified asresistant to Soybean yellow Mosaic virus.EXTENSIONThe scientists also participate in the farmers contact programme as well as practicaltrainings at different levels including those of IAS and PCS officers, Extension workers, Agriculturalofficers, Farmers, Defense Personnels etc. The Scientists of the department also activelyparticipate in the trainings organized under the T&V programme for the benefit of farmers/Statelevel Agricultural Officers. Two Professors (Extension Pathology) and crop disease specialists aredeputed to “Help Line Service” started recently by the University under Agriculture TechnologyInformation Centre (ATIC). The telephone number of help line services is 05944-234810 and 1551.Technology developed by the centre is regularly communicated to the farmers of the 13 districts ofUttaranchal State through the extension staff (Plant Protection) of both university and stateagriculture and horticulture departments posted in all districts of the state. The radio talks and TVprogramme are delivered. Popular articles and disease circulars are published regularly for thebenefit of the farmers.- 24 -
(Seed Health Management for Better Productivity)UP-GRADATION TO CENTRE OF ADVANCED STUDIESIn view of the outstanding quality of teaching, research and extension work being carried out bythe department, ICAR vide letter No. 1-2/93 (CAS)UNDP dated Feb.02, 1995 upgraded the departmentto the status of the centre of advanced studies in plant pathology. Major mandate of the CAS was to trainscientific faculty from all over the country in important and innovative areas of plant pathology. So farunder CAS, 16 trainings have been conducted and 336 scientists from all over the country have beentrained in different areas. Centre of Advanced Studies in Plant Pathology at Pantnagar was awarded acertificate of Appreciation in commemoration of Golden Jubilee year of independence (1998) fororganizing the programmes for human resource development and developing excellent instructionalmaterial by the education division, ICAR on August 14, 1998. The progress report CAS in PlantPathology during X plan is as follows:Trainings Held1. Recent advances in biology, epidemiology and management of diseases of major kharifcrops (Sept. 19- Oct. 12, 1996)2. Recent advances in biology, epidemiology and management of diseases of major rabi crops(Feb. 25 –March 18, 1997)3. Ecology and ecofriendly management of soil-borne plant pathogens (Jan 12 – Feb. 02, 1998)4. Advanced techniques in plant pathology (Oct. 12 – Nov. 02, 1998)5. Recent advances in detection and management of seed-borne pathogens (March 10-30,1999)6. Recent advances etiology and management of root-rot and wilt complexes (Nov. 26 – Dec.16, 1998)7. Integrated pest management with particular reference to plant diseases: concept, potentialand application (Nov. 23 –Dec. 13, 2000)8. Recent advances in research on major diseases of horticultural crops (March 01-30, 2001)9. Recent advances in plant protection technology for sustainable agriculture (Nov. 19 –Dec.09, 2001)- 25 -
