Screening urdbean Genotypes under Field Conditions against Powdery Mildew Disease

Abstract: In Kharif, forty seven genotypes including check screened against powdery mildew diseases under field conditions with LBG 623 as susceptible check showed varied per cent severity. Out of 47 genotypes, KUP-1 was immune, two genotypes KUP-30 and KUP-40 were highly resistant, and ten were moderately resistant respectively to powdery mildew, whereas, the rest of the genotypes were moderately susceptible to highly susceptible. In rabi, out of eleven genotypes, RUP-6 and RUP-9 were highy resistant against to powdery mildew disease, RUP-7 moderately resistant, RUP-4 moderately susceptible, other seven genotypes were highly susceptible, respectively.
