Abstract:

In this study, 48 pea accessions collected from Indian institute of pulse research, Kanpur, were screened for resistance to Sclerotinia sclerotiorum by two different method viz., cut stem and detached leaf method. The observations of result in cut stem method showed that 15 out of 48 accessions found resistant to white rot, resulted 0-2.5 cm lesion length, however 26 accessions found tolerant against the pathogen, resulted 2.5-6 cm lesion length. In this study, 7 accessions out of 48 were found susceptible to Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, resulted 7-14 cm lesion length. However in detached leaf method, four accessions (EC- 329569, EC-296176, P-107-2-1 and) of the 48 accessions screened showed resistant against the pathogen which produce lesion length on leaf between 0.4-0.8 cm, whereas 40 pea accessions were reported to moderately resistant, produced 0.8-3.5 cm lesion length. Of all the accessions screened, three accessions (PM-9, EC- 329554 and EC- 329572) were found susceptible which produce 3.5-4.3 cm lesion length of pathogen infection All the accession screened, EC-329569, ET-45189 and IPF-5-19 were found resistant, while PM- 9, EC- 329554 and EC- 329558 were found susceptible in this study.
