Experiment code Path 3 (i), 2023
Experiment Title Evaluation of different fungicides against boll rot and foliar diseases of cotton, 2023
Research Type AICRP on Cotton
Experiment Background There are many pathogens that can cause boll rot such as Alternaria spp., Ascochyta gossypii, Aspergillus flavus, Aspergillus niger, Bacillus pumilus, Colletotrichum spp., Diplodia gossypina, Erwinia aroideae, Fusarium spp., Lasiodiplodia theobromae, Myrothecium roridum, Pantoea agglomerans, Phoma exigua, Phomopsis sp., Phytophthora spp., Rhizoctonia solani and Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. malvacearum. And sometimes, saprophytic and/or opportunistic fungi detected and associated with cotton boll rots were Botrytis spp, Cephalosporium sp, Cercospora spp., Cladosporium sp., Curvularia sp, Epicoccum sp, Graphium spp., Mucor sp, Nigrospora sp., Periconia sp., Trichotecium sp and Rhizoctonia sp. Hence systemic explorations by using different fungicides on cotton disease including boll rot were carried out. Keeping in view, an experiment based treatment is planned for the effectual management of the boll rot and cotton disease.
