Abstract

Sixty-three genotypes of  french bean was screened against leaf spot (Alternaria  alternata) in sick plots at Research Farm of Dryland Agriculture Research Srinagar, Rangreth during  Kharif  2018 and 2019. The highest mean disease incidence ranged from 0.00 to 85.00 per cent  with  the mean disease intensity ranged from 0.00 to 53.26 per cent .One genotype namely  ‘Local Pulwama’ was highly susceptible in their disease reaction. Among the screened germplasm, ‘Highly Resistant’ genotypes was SKU-R-601, SKUA-R-105, SKU-R-927, DARS-25, DARS-66, DARS-R-615,  while as ‘Susceptible’ genotypes was  DARS-8, DARS-12,  DARS-11, SKUAST-R-155, SKU-R-928, DARS-7, DARS-R-4, Bhaderwah (L),  Local  Kupwara black and Raj Jawala. Local Pulwama was found to be a highly susceptible (HS) genotype.  Twenty nine genotypes namely., DARS-16, DARS-9, DARS-54, DARS-39, VL-125, DARS-63, ENTO-504, SKUAST-204,SKU-R-925, DARS-60, DARS-109, DARS-43, DARS-44, SKU-R-23, DARS-4, DARS-74, SKU-R-105, DARS-40, DARS-23, DARS-18, SKU-R-71, WB-341, SKU-R-605, Uri local, Shopian (L), SKU-R-23, DARS-71, SSGB-729, DARS-R-19 showed resistant reaction to disease. The selection for resistance was based on the reaction of varieties on leaves.
