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.

    Studies on soil adaptability and bio-control potential of Drechslerella brochopaga and Arthrobotrys musiformis against Meloidogyne incognita on brinjal (Solanum melongena L).

    Drechslerella brochopaga and Arthrobotrys musiformis were isolated from the soil of the Banda district and characterized by using the relevant literatures. Drechslerella brochopaga and Arthrobotrys musiformis were found to capture and kill the nematodes by using constricting ring and adhesive network respectively. These fungi were tested for the ideal source of the substrate/ media for the growth and sporulation for. The best growth and sporulation of Drechslerella brochopaga was found on mung bean agar media and corn meal agar respectively. The best growth and sporulation of Arthrobotrys musiformis was noted on Lentil grain Agar medium followed by mix bran agar medium. The poor growth and sporulation of Arthrobotrys musiformis was noted on mung bean grain agar medium. Minimum growth and sporulation of Drechslerella brochopaga was found on mix bran agar and Lentil grain Agar medium respectively. Interaction of Arthrobotrys musiformis and Drechslerella brochopaga with M. incognita resulted in the formation of traps that subsequently capture and kill the M. incognita. Maximum trap formation (25.53) and trapping of M. incognita (J2) were observed in Drechslerella brochopaga (98.83) followed by Arthrobotrys musiformis. Drechslerella brochopaga and Arthrobotrys musiformis were tested for their adoptability in soil of Banda district. Drechslerella brochopaga showed inhibitory effect of soil fungi stasis on germination (6.91-36.49% (but formed frequent conidial trap in vicinity of soil (57.95-87.57%). Arthrobotrys musiformis was generated by germ tube (75.92- 97.39 %) and no conidial trap formation was observed. Trapping of soil nematodes was also observed by the conidial trap of Drechslerella brochopaga. Bio efficacy test of Arthrobotrys musiformis and Drechslerella brochopaga in root-knot infested soil resulted in the reduction of number of root-knot (68.85%) and M. incognita (J2) by Drechslerella brochopaga. Arthrobotrys musiformis reduced only 38.99% reduction in the number of root-knot and 50.76% reduction in M. incognita (J2). The result of research carried out under the thesis indicates that Drechslerella brochopaga and Arthrobotrys musiformis were potential nematode-trappers and well adoptive in soil of Banda. However, the D. brochcopaga is more effective biocontrol agent because of its conidial trap forming ability, nematode-trapping ability and excellent bio-efficacy against M. incognita.
