Title : Evaluation of efficacy of chemical, botanicals and beejamrut in growth promotion and management of damping off disease in cauliflower at Udayapur, Nepal Material Type: printed text Authors: S. G.C., Author ; L. Khatri, Author Publication Date: 2020 Article on page: 303-306 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Soil borne pathogens, vegetables, Percentage Disease Incidence Abstract: Vegetable contributes 20.74% of the total Agricultural Gross Domestic Products (AGDP) of the country. Among the vegetables
produced, cauliflower (Brassica oleracea L. var. botrytis) is one of the important vegetable crops in Nepal. Soil borne
pathogens (soil inhabitants and soil transients) are one of the major factors contributing to lower yield in vegetables either
through damage of whole crop, or by making them unmarketable. Damping off caused by Pythium, Fusarium, Rhizoctonia,
Phytophthora is one of the major disease of vegetables crops. This disease attacks a crop in its two stages i.e. pre-emergence
of seeds and in seedling stage. This study was conducted in a sick plot at Ghumne 5 of Belaka Municipality, Udayapur, Nepal
with six treatments, each replicated four times. The pathogen causing damping off was identified as Rhizoctonia sp. Among
the treatments Beejamrut was found to be superior to other treatments in terms of root length (5.97±0.62cm) and shoot length
(13.25±1.16cm). In case of root weight and shoot weight Beejamrut (0.28±0.03g;1.85±0.50g), respectively, gave the similar
results to Thiram (0.27±0.01g;1.89±0.4g), respectively. Lowest Percentage Disease Incidence (PDI) was found in Thiram
(18.0±1) and Beejamrut (19.0±1) treated plotsLink for e-copy: https://afu.edu.np/sites/default/files/Evaluation%20of%20efficacy%20of%20chemica [...]

Title : In-vitro evaluation of commercially available fungicides against Bipolaris sorokiniana, the cause of spot blotch of barley Material Type: printed text Authors: B. Angdembe, Author ; N. Dhakal, Author ; S. G.C., Author ; K. R. Pant, Author ; H. K. Manandhar, Author Publication Date: 2020 Article on page: 105-111 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Food poisoned technique, fungicide, spot blotch, Abstract: A laboratory experiment was done to evaluate the effectiveness of commercially available fungicides against spot blotch
pathogen of barley, Bipolaris sorokiniana, at Nepal Polytechnic Institute (NPI), Chitwan, Nepal by employing food
poisoned technique. Fungicides such as Uthane-M45 (mancozeb 75% WP), Blutoxx (copper oxychloride 50% WP), Bavistin
(carbendazim 50% WP), and Thiram (thiram 75% WS) with three concentrations (100 ppm, 200 ppm and 400 ppm) were
included in the experiment. Experiment was arranged in a completely randomized design with four replications for each
treatment. The mycelial growth of B. sorokiniana was recorded at 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 days after inoculation. All the fungicides
significantly reduced the mycelial growth of the pathogen as compared to control (without any fungicide) in poisoned culture.
Copper oxychloride at 400 ppm inhibited 83% growth of mycelium of the fungus after 10 days. All the concentrations of
copper oxychloride and 400 ppm of mancozeb were able to inhibit more than 50% of mycelial growth of the fungus. The
results revealed that inhibition percentages were increased with the increase in the concentrations of all fungicides used in
this study. The present results thus suggest that the current recommended doses of copper oxychloride and mancozeb for
foliar application purposes may not be sufficient to manage the disease under field conditions and also for seed treatment.
The recommended doses may need to be re-evaluated.Link for e-copy: https://afu.edu.np/sites/default/files/12.In-vitro_evaluation_of_commercially_av [...]
