Abstract

Thirty seven genotypes were screened against stem fly during Kharif 2006 and 2007 seasons. The genotypes NRC-55, NRC-51, NRC-52 and DSb-101 were recorded significantly lower stem fly incidence and stem tunnelling per cent compared to rest of the genotypes. The promising MACS-798, MACS-740, MACS-817 and DSb-102 were also recorded stem fly incidence and stem tunnelling and found next best to NRC's and DSb-101 genotypes but proved superior over national check. The genotypes MAS-2000-1 and KHSb-2 were recorded higher stem fly incidence and stem tunnelling and found significantly inferior among the genotypes. Among the genotype NRC-55, NRC-51, and Dsb-101 were categorized as resistant. Moderately resistant genotypes include, MACS-798, MACS-740, MACS-817, NRC-52 and DSb-102 and susceptible genotypes includes MAS-2000-1 and KHSb-2. Further remaining twenty seven genotypes were categorized as moderately susceptible.

Abstract

A roving survey was undertaken in four districts of major soybean growing areas of northern Karnataka viz., Dharwad, Belgaum, Bagalkot and Bidar during Kharif 2006 and 2007. The average higher per cent stem fly incidence of 63.48 and 61.80 was recorded in Belgaum and Bidar districts, respectively. The lower stem fly incidence (12.67%) was recorded in Dharwad district and moderate incidence (22.91%) was noticed in Bagalkot district. The average higher per cent stem tunnelling of 29.83 and 28.69 was recorded in Belgaum and Bidar district, receptively. The moderate (10.57%) stem tunnelling was in Bagalkot district, while it was lower (8.17%) stem tunnelling in Dharwad district.
