Khair Seedling Mortality in Plantations
Subscribe/Renew Journal
In plantations in the Siwalik Forest Division, U.P. State, raised on site previously occupied by scrub forests, khair seedlings suffered a mortality of 14 per cent, of which 12 per cent could be ascribed due to attack by the ischolar_main parasite, Ganoderma lucidum (Leyss.) Karst. The fungus, as endemic species in the natural forests, built up in the residual stumps which served as infection centres of high inoculum potential. The decayed stumps infected khair seedlings by direct ischolar_main contact and killed them. Removal of residual stumps and ischolar_mains from trenches prior to planting in order to remove the source of infection will bring the disease incidence to the minimum.
