Effect of nutrients and weeding on the incidence of mungbean mosaic
Pakistan Journal of Plant Pathology 1 (2), 48-50
Abstract: A field experiment was conducted to study the effects of boron, zinc and sulphur as affected by weeding on the incidence and severity of yellow mosaic disease of mungbean. The crop was exposed to natural infection of yellow mosaic virus. The disease incidence, severity and mosaic leaves (%) were minimum in with B + Zn + S plots when weeding was done. Consequently there was significant increase in yield as compared to the plots when weeding was not done. Disease incidence and severity was also low in the boron or zinc or sulphur plots when weeding was done as compared to boron or zinc or sulphur plots when weeding was not performed respectively. The percentage of reduction in plant height, pod length, 100-seeds weight and seed yield due to yellow mosaic disease was minimum in B + Zn + S plot with weeding as compared to boron or zinc or sulphur or B + Zn + S plot without weeding.
