An experiment was carried out to find the different levels of inoculums on incidence of foot rot disease of finger millet or nagli at Botany farm, College of Agriculture, Dr. BSKKV, Dapoli. The fungus was studied at four levels of inoculum i.e. 1, 10, 50 and 100 sclerotia per pot. At all levels except 100 sclerotia per pot seedling mortality and symptoms was observed within 30th, 20th and 13th days of inoculation, respectively. Only one plant wilted upto 11th days of inoculation in inoculum level of 100 sclerotia per pot. Number of sclerotia produced per pot increased with increase in inoculum levels.

Abstract


An experiment was carried out to find the different levels of inoculums on incidence of foot rot disease of finger millet or nagli at Botany farm, College of Agriculture, Dr. BSKKV, Dapoli. The fungus was studied at four levels of inoculum i.e. 1, 10, 50 and 100 sclerotia per pot. At all levels except 100 sclerotia per pot seedling mortality and symptoms was observed within 30th, 20th and 13th days of inoculation, respectively. Only one plant wilted upto 11th days of inoculation in inoculum level of 100 sclerotia per pot. Number of sclerotia produced per pot increased with increase in inoculum levels.
