Journal Title: International Journal of Agriculture Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 8, Issue 50
Abstract
For finding status of wilt of lentil in three districts viz., Morena, Bhind and Gwalior of Madhya Pradesh carried out a survey of the lentil growing areas in villages of Gwalior, Bhind and Morena districts during 2010-11 in Rabi season. In all surveyed fields none of them remained free from wilt disease. Incidence of wilt in the surveyed fields ranged from 6.27 to 19.37 per cent. The maximum incidence of wilt was observed in Dandraua (19.38%), followed by Dimni (19.01%), Mehgaon (18.62%), Berja (17.49%) and Gormi (16.40%).The minimum incidence of wilt was observed in Milavali (6.27%) followed by Khera (6.64%), Badagaon (6.76%).The first symptom of wilt occurs as an isolated patch more or less circular. Curling of the leaves begins from the lower end and extends upwords. The crown then droops and this is followed by the death of the plant. The root system is poorly developed and discoloured brown (If we see after splitting of stem).
