Bio-Assay of Fungicides against the Neovossia indica Inciting Karnal Bunt of Wheat

When it comes to its use in various food and feed applications, wheat is the cereal that is farmed most frequently worldwide. It is utilized for feedstock and grain production in both developed and developing nations. In 2020–21, India is predicted to produce a record 109.24 MT of wheat, up from 107.86 MT in 2019–20. The illness has been continuously controlled with the use of chemical treatments, resistant cultivars, and cultural practices. Fungicides significantly improved seed germination in one year, with Tilt 250 EC and Folicur being most effective, with other fungicides also showing consistent efficacy. The study examined wheat seed that had been administered with different fungicides to prevent disease. The results showed that all fungicides significantly boosted seed germination in a single year, with Folicur and Tilt 250 EC showing the highest efficacy. The trend of efficacy remained unchanged.
