207 Project Profile Summary

Despite considerable increase in the productivity and production under Technological

Mission on Oilseeds, huge amount of money is spent on the import of edible oil. A wide

Gap exists between the potential yields and the yield realized at farmer field, which is

largely because of number of biotic stresses to which mustard is exposed. Indian mustard

{Brassica juncea(L.) Czern & Coss} is one of the major oilseed crops cultivated in India and

around the word. Rajasthan ranks first in area, production and productivity of mustard.

Sclerotinia sclerotiorum(Lib.) de Bary has become important in recent times in India in

general and Rajasthan in particular with high(up to 66%) disease incidence and severe yield

losses (up to 39.9%) leading to discouragement of farmers growing the crop. Sclerotinia

stem rot has been rated as the most important eight problems being faced by the farmer of

Bharatpur District in mustard cultivation in recent times. Scelerotinia is one of the most

omnivorous, non specific and damaging plant pathogens. The pathogen is reported to have a

wide host range, known to infect about 400 plant species with no proven source of resistance

against the disease till date in any host. It causes considerable damage in rapeseed-mustard,

cauliflower, cabbage, carrot, sunflower and peas. It is able to form stable heterokaryons and

has field populations that are genetically heterogeneous. The project is aimed to develop,

Integrated disease Management strategies for the Sclerotinia stem rot of mustard. It is based

on the data generated and strategies proposed by different research organizations. An IDM

module (package of practices) will be tested and validated at selected centers, with special

emphasis on host plant resistance, biopesticides and botanicals. Module will be compared

with recommended practices and with the farmer’s own practices. This IDM module will

reduce the excessive use of chemical pesticides and side by side save the other beneficial

microbes. In the present project, sustainable IDM strategies will be developed by including

host plant resisitance, biopesticides and botanicals for the management of Sclerotinia stem

rot of mustard.

III: Technical Details

220 Introduction Although research and implementation of IDM has been successful in developed countries, IDM

has not made significant progress in India. Further information on status, etiology and

epidemiology of disease has so far not been established. Hence, it has been difficult to implement

IDM Programme for Sclerotinia stem rot of mustard in India. The Sclerotinia stem rot has

emerged as a serious threat to mustard cultivation, particularly in Rajasthan where the soil is heavy

, RH is comparatively high and prolonged cool temperatures prevail during the winters,

harmonized with flowering and pod formation stage of crop. The sclerotia that fall in the ground

miz up in soil during crop harvest and add primary inoculums in the following years. Being a

polyphagous pathogen, the disease once appeared is difficult to be eradicated. Sclerotinia rot or

white blight of mustard has become a serious problem : 10 to 66 percent disease incidence in

Rajasthan and 70-72 percent in severe cases in Uttar Pradesh. Yield losses vary with the crop Stage

and time of infection. Plant infected in the early flowering stage will set seed. Sclerotia of this

polyphagous soil-borne pathogen, survive in soil even under adverse conditions up to 10 years. In

recent years, an increasing consciousness about environmental pollution due to pesticides and

development fungicide resistant strains in Plant pathogens (Gossen et al., 2001; Annette Penaud et

al, 2003) has challenged plant pathologists to search for ecofriendly disease management tools by

including the IDM component of host Plant resistance, biopesticides and botanicals. Keeping this

in view, the Sustainable strategies including host plan resistance, biopesticides and botanicals will

be developed for Sclerotinia rot of mustard.

Objectives

1. Surveys of major mustard growing areas of Rajasthan for assessing the incidence and severity

of Sclerotinia stem rot disease.

2. Development and field validations of Sclerotinia stem rot management technology in mustard

following IDM strategies.

3. Developments of Sclerotinia stem rot forewarning and virulence assessment system.

4. Extensions of IDM technologies of Sclerotinia stem rot of mustard to the farmers.

2201 Origin of the project(Problem Identification)

Indian mustard is a major crop of Rajasthan, Haryana and western U.P. It suffers heavy loss

due to attack of Sclerotinia stem rot disease at flowering stage of the crop. This crop is

incurred by serious losses by Sclerotinia sclerotiorum. In recent years, Sclerotinia stem rot has

become important in mustard with high disease incidence (up to 70 %) and severe yield losses

(up to 40 %) leads to discouragement of farmers growing the crop. Therefore, this area has

been selected for management of Sclerotinia stem rot of Brassica juncea by following

integrated disease management strategies.

2202 Immediate Objectives:

1. To assess the incidence and severity of Sclerotinia stem rot of Brassica juncea in Rajasthan.

2. To study the major constraints in the development, synthesis and adoption of IDM technology

for Sclerotinia stem rot of Brassica juncea.

2203 Long term objective

1. Management of Sclerotinia stem rot, a main problem in major mustard growing areas.

2. To popularize Sclerotinia stem rot IDM technology among farmers.

2204 Review of STATUS OF Research in the Subjecto(References as Annexure 1)

International Status

Rapeseed and mustard are the short duration winter crops of this subcontinent, and their disease

problems are vastly different and more acute than those of long duration rape(Brassica napus) and

turnip rape(B. camperstris) of temperature countries like Canada and Europe(Bhowmik, 2003).

Brassica juncea is extensively grown for its oil in Asia. Studies conducted on the rapeseed in the

recent past on Sclerotinia stem rot (Bradely et al., 2006: del Rio et al., 2007), give sketchy

description of the disease, and information provided is not directly relevant to the serious problem

of Sclerotinia stem rot (Bradley et al.., 2006: del directly relevant to the serious problem

Sclerotinia stem rot of mustard of this region of this region.

Calcium nutrition of crucifers is likely to be important in reaction to S. sclerotiorum. Appreciable

degrees of resistance to S. sclerotiorum in cultivated crucifers are non-existent.

National Status

Sclerotinia stem rot was first reported from Pusa (Bihar), India in 1915. In Assam mustard crop

failed due to stem rot attack (Roy and Saikia,1976). Formerly, Sclerotinia stem rot was minor

importance in India. In eighties, while Stem rot disease of Brassica juncea has emerged in serious

form and observed in many parts of country (Sharan et al.(1985). In 1991-92 Sclerotinia stem rot

of mustard recorded spectacular height in various district of Rajasthan (Lodha et al., 1992). Gupta

et al. (1994) reported that Sclerotinia stem rot is a serious problem in Brassica growing area of

north-western Haryana and suggested biological control of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum by VAM

fungi. Stem rot is also a major cause of losses in mustard (up to 72% losses in severe cases) in

Uttar Pradesh(Singh et al., 1997). Kang and Chahal(2000) reported prevalence(2-3%) and

incidence(.2-12%) of white rot- a recent threat to rapeseed- mustard cultivation. Shivpuri and

Ghasolia(2003) estimated the seed yield losses of 37.2-92.3% due to Sclerotinia stem rot has

become a serious problem in Rajsthan in many Districs viz., Kota, Swaimadhopur,

Shriganganagar, Jhunjhunu, Alwar, Jaipur, Hanumangarh, Dausa, Ajmer and Bharatpur.

Management of Sclerotinia stem rot of B. Juncea

Sclerotinia is difficult to control due to the wide range of host plants it can infect and its ability to

survive in soil as sclerotia for long period. Use of fungicides in oilseeds Brassicas to manage

Sclerotinia for long period Use of fungicides in oilseeds Brassicas to manage Sclerotinia stem rot

in Indian mustard through and integrated approach. Sharma et al (2001) reported effect of various

agronomic practices on the incidence of white rot of Indian mustard caused by Sclerotinia

sclerrtiorum. Crop sown between 4th

wk of oct. of 1st wk of Nov. had minimum(9.5%) white rot

severity than significantly higher(49.2%) on sowing between 2nd

and 3rd

wk of Oct. white rot was

less (13.7%) in fallow-raya-fallow-raya rotation than pearlmillet-raya rotation. Yadav(2004)

recommended integrated management of mustard diseases including Sclerotinia stem rot in

Punjab.

Sharma and Basandarai (1997) reported that boiagents(Trichoderma viride, T. Harzianum and T.

Rasecum) and carbendazim were highly effective in reducing the sclerotial viability in cauliflower

individually and in combination. Singh(1998) reported biological control of Sclerotinia stem rot of

rapeseed and mustard. Trichoderma viride showed strong antibiosis and formed 2-3mm zone of

inhibition after six days of inoculation in duel culture. Pathak et al.(2001) reported the effect of

antagonistic fungi and seed dressing fungicides on the incidence of stem rot of mustard. Seed

treatment with T. viride, T. harzianum and T. virens were effective over untreated check but their

combination with seed dressing fungicides further improved their effect. Chattopadhyay et al.

(2002) reported management of Sclerotinia rot of Indian mustard using ecofriendly strategies. Seed

treatment with GR isolate of T. viride was the best in reducing Sclerotinia rot of Indian mustard

with foliar spray of same bioagent. Chattopadhyay et al. (2004) further reported that bulb extract

of A. sativum as seed treatment integrated with its foliar spray provided the highest reduction of

Sclerotinia rot, there by reduced losses in seed yield and overcame stunting due to the disease.

Thus the study demonstrated the potential of integration of natural tools for managing Sclerotinia

rot of mustard. Chattopadhyay et al. (2005) reported garlic bulb extract- a letter choice than

chemical fungicides in oilseed crop diseases. They elaborated that Sclerotinia rot of Indian

mustard could be effectively tackled by seed treatment with 1% (w/v) garlic (allium sativum) bulb

extract, better when supplemented by foliar spray of same extract of flower initiation stage of the

crop. Ghasolia and Shivpuri (2005) tested fungal antagonists and found trichoderma virens as most

effective biological control agent in mustard. Under AICRPRM trials, incidence of Sclerotinia rot

was found lowest in seed treatment in garlic blb extract. However, highest seed yield (16%

increases over control) were recorded in combination of seed treatment and foliar spray with

trichoderma harzianum (AICRPRM, 2006).

Pathak et al. (2002) screened 121 genotypes and found four genotypes and found four genotypes

viz., PCR 10, RW 9401 and RGN 80006 consistently promising against stem rot disease during the

four season i.e. 1996 to 2000. Ghasolia and Shivpuri(2005) found that out of 32

genotypes/varieties screened for resistance against Sclerotinia stem rot for three consecutive

cropping season eight i.e. Hyola 401, PBN 9501, PWR 9541, Kiran, RH 9401, RH 492, RW 8410

and PWR 9511 showed resistant to moderately resistant reaction to S.sclerotiorum.
