Banda University of Agriculture and Technology, Banda

Banda University of Agriculture and Technology, Banda has been established as a full-fledged State University, having unique honour of being the “First Agricultural University of Bundelkhand Region”. The University was notified vide Government Order No. 301/79-V-1-10-1 (Ka) 27-2009 Lucknow and established on 2nd March 2010 under Uttar Pradesh Agriculture University Act (Sanshodhan) 1958 Gazette-Adhiniyam 2010. Initially it was named as “Manyawar Shri Kanshiram Ji University of Agriculture and Technology, Banda”, which was changed as “Banda University of Agriculture and Technology, Banda” vide Uttar Pradesh Agriculture University Act (Sanshodhan) Adhiniyam, 2014, No. 1528(2)/LXXIX-V-1-14-1(Ka)-13-2014 dated 4th December 2014. The University has been established for the development of the agriculture and allied sectors in the Uttar Pradesh on the whole and Bundelkhand region in particular. It is committed to serve the Bundelkhand region with trinity concept, i.e. complete integration of teaching, research and extension for the development of agriculture and allied sectors in order to ensure food security and enhance socio-economic status of inhabitants. State Government of Uttar Pradesh has assigned the University with the responsibilities of (a) human resource generation and development, (b) generation and perfection of technologies, and (c) their dissemination to the farmers, orchardists and dairy farmers in the Chitrakoot Dham and Jhansi divisions. The Chirtrkoot Dham Division consists of four districts, namely Banda, Chitrakoot (Karvi), Mahoba and Hamirpur whereas Jhansi Division consists of Jhansi, Lalitpur and Jalaun (Orai) districts.

    EVALUATION OF COMPATIBILITY AND SENSITIVITY OF SOME NEMATODE-TRAPPING FUNGI TO COMMON FUNGICIDES
    (BANDA UNIVERSITY OF AGRICULTURE & TECHNOLOGY, BANDA-210001, UTTAR PRADESH, INDIA, 2023-08-09) ALI KHAN; Dharmendra Kumar
    Nematode-trapping fungi are potential bio control agent of the plant parasitic nematode. The management of plant parasitic nematode are completely relied on chemicals which are toxic to the environment and human health. Therefore, introduction of bioagents in agriculture system is important, provided the introduced bio-agent are compatible with chemicals fungicides. In present investigation, four species of nematode trapping fungi were isolated and their nematophagous potential against Meloidogyne incognita and their compatibility against ten common fungicides were tested. All the nematode-trapping fungi were found potential against Meloidogyne incognita which captured and killed the J2 between 60 to 75% on 5th days of nematode inoculation. Compatibility test of nematodetrapping fungi with common 10 fungicides indicate that all nematode-trapping fungi were found most toxic to Propiconazole and Hexaconazole followed by mancozeb, carbendazim, propineb and metalaxyl. These fungi were found tolerant to Sulphur and copper oxychloride even at 200 ppm. The spores of nematode-trapping fungi were found tolerant to toxic effect of fungicides in comparison to the mycelial growth of nematode trapping fungi. The spores of these fungi were found tolerant up to 10 ppm of mancozeb, chlorothalonil and Propiconazole but completely inhibited at 25 ppm concentration. All the nematode-trapping fungi there found tolerant to Hexaconazole and carbendazim up to 25 ppm but completely killed at 50 ppm concentration. Propineb kill the spore germination of all the nematode trapping fungi between 25-75 ppm The spore of nematode-trapping fungi was found tolerant to copper oxychloride and Sulphur up to 300 ppm but completely killed at 400 ppm concentration. The study indicate that nematode-trapping fungi are sensitive to range of chemicals at different concentration but spores of these fungi are more tolerant in compression to the mycelium of these fungi. Nematode-trapping fungi used in this study could be integrated with some fungicides (Sulphur and Copper oxychloride) in the IPM programme of Integrated pest management.
