Chaudhary Sarwan Kumar Himachal Pradesh Agriculture University, Palampur

Himachal Pradesh Krishi Vishvavidyalaya (renamed as Chaudhary Sarwan Kumar Himachal Pradesh Krishi Vishvavidyalaya in June, 2001) was established on 1st November, 1978.The College of Agriculture (established in May, 1966) formed the nucleus of the new farm University. It is ICAR accredited and ISO 9001:2015 certified institution. The Indian Council of Agricultural Research has ranked this University at eleventh place among all farm universities of the country. The University has been given the mandate for making provision for imparting education in agriculture and other allied branches of learning, furthering the advancement of learning and prosecution of research and undertaking extension of such sciences, especially to the rural people of Himachal Pradesh. Over the years, this University has contributed significantly in transforming the farm scenario of Himachal Pradesh. It has developed human resources, varieties and technologies and transferred these to farming community enabling the State to receive the “Krishikarman award” of Govt. of India four times in row for food grain production among small states of the country. Today, the State has earned its name for hill agricultural diversification and the farming community has imposed its faith in the University.

    COAT PROTEIN DIVERSITY IN BEAN COMMON MOSAIC VIRUS AND ELUCIDATION OF R-GENES IN INDIAN LANDRACES OF Phaseolus Vulgaris L.
    (CSK Himachal Pradesh Krishi Vishavavidyalaya, Palampur, 2010) SHARMA, PRACHI; Sharma, P. N.
    Present investigations on bean mosaic disease caused by bean common mosaic virus (BCMV), a member of family Potyviridae were undertaken to study the molecular diversity different strains of the virus using 3’ terminal region and to elucidate the presence of R-genes to find out durable sources of resistance. Symptomatology of different isolates belonging to 4 strains viz., NL-1, NL-1n, NL-7 and NL-7n consisted of mosaic, blistering, downward leaf rolling, green vein banding, thickening of leaves, reduction of leaf lamina and leaf deformation. DAS-ELISA and RT-PCR analysis of test isolates established the identity of the virus as BCMV and their reaction on International differential set grouped them in 4 strains. RT-PCR generated an amplicon of ~1300 bp in different isolates whose cloned product after sequencing revealed that it consisted of 3’ terminal region having partial NIb, complete cp and 3’UTR. Sequences were submitted in NCBI genbank and their sequence homology, multiple alignment and evolutionary divergence analysis showed that this region could not differentiate the pathogenically variable strains of the same virus. Ninety one accessions of common bean were found resistant to NL-1 and NL-1n strain. Prediction of resistance genes using tightly linked markers showed the presence of I, bc-12 and bc-3 gene in resistant cultivars.
