Effect Of NPK On The Incidence Of Alternaria Leaf Blight Of Mustard

Abstract: A 2-year field study was carried out to find out the effect of three macro nutrients NPK on the severity of Alternaria leaf blight and yield of mustard. Nitrogen @ 80, 100, 120, 140, and 160, phosphorus @ 15, 30, and 45, and potassium @ 30, 60, and 90 kg/ha were applied. Among the nutrients, 120-30-60 kg NPK/ha was considered as recommended dose on the basis of soil test. Fertilizer dose 120-30-90 kg/ha appeared to be the best combination of N, P, and K in reducing the disease incidence and to increase seed y… Show more

“…However, a higher dose of N makes the crop susceptible to disease. Soil application of K as basal has been found to check Alternaria blight disease in mustard (Khatun et al 2011). It has been reported that sulfur, zinc, and boron decrease the development of Alternaria blight and increase seed yield of mustard crop (Khatun et al 2010).…”

“…Soil application of K as basal has been found to check Alternaria blight disease in mustard (Khatun et al 2011). It has been reported that sulfur, zinc, and boron decrease the development of Alternaria blight and increase seed yield of mustard crop (Khatun et al 2010). Application of some micronutrient, namely, B at 1 g/L, Mo at 1 g/L, S at 2 g/L, and Zn at 2 g/L, in various combinations reduced Alternaria blight disease and increased yield of rapeseed-mustard (Mondal 2008).…”

“…Mackenzie (1981) reported that higher doses of nitrogenous fertilizer decreased the disease of Alternaria blight of tomato. Higher dose of nitrogen (140 and 160 kg N/ha) increased the disease incidence of Alternaria leaf blight of mustard (Khatun et al, 2011). Saharan et al (1982) observed that the application of N fertilizer to tomato increased the incidence of Fusarium wilt of tomato plants.…”

“…Sharma and Kolte (1994) reported that under natural conditions based on the number and size of spots, percent leaf and pod infection, average disease index on leaf and pods and number of spots on stem, K-fertilized plants reduced 30-45 per cent severity of Alternaria blight over N, P and NP fertilized plants in Toria. Higher dose of K (90 kg/ha) decreased the incidence of Alternaria leaf blight (Khatun et al, 2011). Chung and Huang (1993) observed that application of KCl to soil increased the resistance of Chinese kale plants to black spot disease.…”
