Reaction to Diseases

Fungal foliar leaf spots (Alternaria, Bacterial leaf blight): Observation of five randomly

selected/tagged plants in each replication at peak incidence period (based on the data being

collected in disease progress nursery)may be taken on 10 leaves per plant and presented as PDI

(% Disease Index) = ((Sum of numerical ratings) / (Total no. of leaves recorded x Maximum

disease grade) ) x 100. Ratings (0-4) are based on Sheoraj (1988).

Bacterial blight grading: 0 = Plants completely free from infection; 1 = Spots few scattered; 2 = Leaf area covered upto 10%; 3 = Leaf area covered from 11-20%; 4 = Leaf area covered >20%.

Grey mildew/Rust: 0 = Plants completely free from infection; 1 = Leaf area covered< 5%; 2 = Leaf area covered 6-20%; 3 = Leaf area covered 21-40; 4 = Leaf area covered >40%.

Tobacco streak virus: Observation on all the plants in each replication

TSV Grading(0-4) 0-Free from the disease, 1- few upper leaves showing chlorosis or necrosis;

2- Moderate square drying and few branches affected; 3- Severe burning of squares and more

branches affected; 4- Severe stunting inclusive of above symptoms.
