Experiment Title Occurence and Diagnosis of Foliar Disease in Cotton Growing Regions of Bharuch
Research Type Other
Experiment Background Cotton is one of the most important commercial crop and it is the back bone of national economy of our country. In India, thirty diseases have been reported for cotton crop. Cotton suffers from several diseases viz., soil-borne and foliar diseases. Among them, grey mildew, Alternaria blight, bacterial blight, ascochyta blight, target spot, Cercospora leaf spot and stemphyllium leaf spot are foliar diseases. Several researchers explore the foliar pathogens causing considerable losses in cotton across the country. But, still the systematic studies need to be carried out to know the perfect cause of the diseases. Hence, the present study will be carried out to know the occurrence of foliar diseases in cotton growing regions of Bharuch jurisdiction.

Layout Plan

Occurrence of the foliar diseases will be recorded on the basis of number of fields observed. The fields will be selected on the basis of random survey and the plants will also be chosen randomly. The five leaves from the middle and lower portion of the plants will be subjected to standard scale of particular diseases. The fix point survey will be carried out at our Regional Cotton Research Station, NAU, Bharuch periodically. To know the perfect cause of foliar diseases, the pathogens will be subjected to microscopic analysis.

Note: Samples will be collected from 8 tehsils of Bharuch district and from each tehsil 5 villages will be surveyed and from each villages 5 fields will be selected for the observations. So, the number of samples will be 200.
