A field experiment conducted during summer season of 2014 revealed that, as the crop stage advanced the extent of thrips infestation and WBNV disease incidence also increased irrespective of the treatments. Thereafter, the thrips population declined gradually. The overall disease incidence in the plots assigned to different treatments did not exceed 45 per cent including control plots at initial stage of the crop growth i.e. up to 60 days after sowing. Thereafter, the disease incidence increased significantly and reached about 100 per cent in all the treatment plots within a short period of time.
