Systematic surveys in garlic growing areas of HP viz., Bilaspur, Chamba, Una, Solan, Sirmour, Shimla, Mandi, Kullu, Kangra and Hamirpur districts were conducted during cropping season 2013-15 to assess the prevalence and distribution of Stemphylium blight of garlic under field conditions. The incidence of Stemphylium blight was found in almost all the districts surveyed. The average disease severity ranged between 31.2-70.0 per cent, maximum being at Kullu district (70.0%) and minimum at Shimla district (31.2%). The disease initially appears as a small spindle shaped white lesions on leaves, which later become sunken with a purple colour surrounded by a yellowish margin.Keywords

The predicted resistance genes present in three common bean landraces KRC-5, KRC-8 and Jawala were validated for their reaction against Colletotrichum lindemuthianum races prevalent in Himachal Pradesh. The landrace KRC-5 showed resistance to 17 races (3, 7, 87, 179, 211, 238, 259, 437, 503, 513, 529, 537, 737, 775, 935, 957 and 1395) while landrace KRC-8, possessed resistance against 7 races viz., 17, 437, 513, 529, 737, 957 and 1395. In the inheritance test, F2/RIL populations obtained from Jawala X KRC-5 segregated into 3:1/1:1 ratio, further confirming the presence of single dominant resistance gene in land race KRC-5.Keywords

Bean anthracnose is one of the major diseases leading to a significant yield losses in susceptible cultivars. Hence, development of widely adaptable anthracnose-resistant cultivars using land races is of immense importance to maintain the production and productivity of the crop in disease prone areas. Keeping this in view, the present investigation was planned to introgress resistance gene from a well known Himalayan land race KRC-8 (Baspa) in the background of high yielding susceptible variety Jawala, both belonging to Andean gene pool. The hybridization, advancement with single seed decent approach and phenotypic screening of F2:8 recombinant inbred lines (RIL) against anthracnose resulted in identification of fifteen potential lines showing resistance to anthracnose. Evaluation of agronomic traits of these lines revealed JB-3 to be significantly better than the parental genotype Jawala for number of pods per plant (18.67), number of seeds per pod (6.67), pod length (13.9 cm) and leaflet length (15.50 cm). Similarly, weight for 100 seeds, which directly contributes towards seed yield of beans, ranged from 48.6g in JB-5-2-2 to a maximum of 52.1g in JB-16-2 which is almost at par with that of Jawala (52.3g). Hence these RILs can be used as resistant donor germplasm for future breeding endeavours.Keywords

Sheath blight of rice, caused by Rhizoctonia solani Kuhn (Teleomorph: Thanatephorus cucumeris (Frank) Donk) is one of the important rice diseases after rice blast and is known to cause yield losses up to the extent of 1.2-69.0 per cent. For an effective management of sheath blight, different disease management approaches could be opted but the use of resistant varieties is considered as the most reliable one. Considering the importance of crop and extent of damage, a set of 50 rice germplasm lines was screened against sheath blight of rice, out of which 14 lines showed resistant reaction and 16 lines exhibited moderately resistant reaction, respectively. Rest 20 lines showed moderately susceptible and susceptible reaction. Rice germplasm lines identified in this study could be brought into rice breeding programmes after field validation.
