Journal Title: The Journal of Phytopharmacology - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 2
Abstract
Thirty brinjal varieties were screened for their resistance / susceptibility to root-knot nematode (Meloidogyne incognita race-1) infestation. Out of 30 brinjal varieties, eighteen varieties viz., Black Beauty, Brinjal 1 hybrid, Brinjal No.38, Chamak, Govinda, Green round, Nagina, Nav Kiran, Neel Kamal, Nishant, P.K-123, Prabha Kiran, Prasad, Sukhda, Surya Kiran, i9Utkal, VNR-51 and VNR-60 were highly susceptible, seven varieties (Brinjal Advance, Brinjal BSS1013, Green long, Harshit, Prapti, Shamli and Ujjwal) were susceptible, two varieties (Mahy 112 and Mahy Ruby) were tolerant, two varieties (Hybrid green and JK Kajal) were moderately resistant and only one variety Mahy 80 was resistant against Meloidogyne incognita race-1. To the best of our knowledge, Mahy 80 variety was ported to be resistant against root-knot nematode, M. incognita race-1 for the first time.
