| dc.description.abstract | Experiments were conducted on chilli varieties Dyavanoor local and Byadagi kaddi at the main research station, Univeisity of Agricultural Sciences, Dharwad during kharif 1996 to investigate the effect of fungicidal sprays on field performance, fruit yield and seed quality. In the laboratory, effect of containers, seed dressing fungicides and methods of storage on seed storability were looked into. The chilli varieties exhibited significant differences in dieback and fruit rot incidence. Dyavanoor local sprayed t^vice with Chlorothalonil 0.1 per cent at 15 days interval showed low incidence of die back and fruit rot incidence while Byadagi kaddi produced higher fruit yields. Seed quality parameters such as 100 seed weight, germination, shoot and root length, seedling diy weight, vigour and field emergence were highest in the variety Byadagi kaddi sprayed twice with Chlorothalonil coupled with the Suit picked at 145 days after planting. With respect to storability over a period of six months, there was a fair degree of preservation of seed quality in seeds treated with Captan 2g per kg and stored in polythene bag. However, irrespective of fungicides, containers and methods of storage, the seed quality of both the varieties dccreased while fungal colonization increased with the increased period of storage. The highest quality was realized from the seeds of variety Byadagi kaddi which were stored as fruits in polythene bag. | en_US |
