Title : SCREENING OF GROUNDNUT VARIETIES/ GENOTYPES FOR RESISTANCE AGAINST APHID APHIS CRACCIVORA AND LEAFHOPPER EMPOASCA KERRI

Abstract :

The field experiment was conducted for two consecutive years 2020 and 2021 during the Kharif, season at Agronomy Farm, S.K.N. College of Agriculture, Jobner (Rajasthan). Out of fifteen genotypes of groundnut screened against aphid and leafhopper four genotypes viz., RG-632-1, RG-559-3, Girnar-4 and RG-633 were categorized as least susceptible against both the insect. Whereas, RG-622-5, RG-382, RG-638, RG-628, RG-621, TG-37-A and RG-639 as moderately susceptible and RG-624, RG-425, RG-510 and RG-578 as highly susceptible to aphid infestation. Eight genotypes viz., RG-382, RG-638, RG-622-5, RG-628, TG-37-A, RG-639, RG-425 and RG-621 were moderately susceptible and three genotypes viz., RG-624, RG-510 and RG-578 were highly susceptible to leafhopper infestations.
