In this context, genetic resistance remains the most economical method for the resource poor farmers. So far, the released varieties are found to be susceptible to GBND. Identification of GBND resistant sources in newly developed advanced breeding lines which are agronomically superior would help in recommending and release of these genotypes for GBND endemic locations. Keeping in view the economic importance of the disease in most of the groundnut growing areas and lack of available resistance sources to GBND, present work has been taken up. |
