Journal Title: International Journal of Agricultural Science and Research (IJASR) - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 1
Abstract
Evaluation of chilli cultivars/varieties against F. oxysporum causing wilt in chilli under in vitro conditions by water culture technique revealed that out of the twenty-two chilli cultivars/varieties, most of the cultivars/varieties were susceptible to the disease. Among the twenty-two cultivars screened, only one cultivar CO-4 showed resistant reaction (6.67% disease incidence), whereas, six cultivars viz., HC-1, GC-1, GC-2, Kashi Gaurav, Ajeet-6 and DKC-8 were moderately resistant with disease incidence of 15.56 to 24.44 per cent. Three cultivars viz., Pant C-1, Punjab Lal and Kashi Sinduri were moderately susceptible (33.33 to 48.99% DI) and remaining twelve cultivars/varieties were either susceptible (>50% DI) or highly susceptible (>75% DI). The cultivars Pusa Sadabahar and Arka Abhir were highly susceptible to wilt disease with 100 per cent disease incidence
