Powdery mildew and damping-off of mungbean were effectively controlled by
Milcurb Super 25 EC and PCNB, respectively; however, none of the 2 fungicides
increased yield. [EMSJ

Powdery mildew of mungbeans and blackgram is a disease of major importance
in Tamil Nadu. An experiment was conduced under field condition at National
Pulses Research Centre, Vamban with three dates of sowing, viz., 1-8-80,
20-8-80 and 10-9-80 and three spacings, viz., 30 x 5, 30 x 10, and 30 x 15 cm.
The results showed that the crop sown on 1-8-80 and 20-8-80 (60-80 day-old
plants) were highly susceptible to infection. The plants raised with wider
spacing of 30 x 15 cm were found to record significantly less incidence than
those with closer spacings. Mungbeans were more susceptible than that of
blackgram. [THH]

Severity of powdery mildew on mungbean was significantly higher in mungbean
monoculture than when mungbean was intercropped with either sorghum or bulrush
millet. No significant difference in disease severity was observed between two
intercropped systems. Disease severity did not differ significantly between
early- and late-planted plots. Mungbean yield was reduced in intercropped plots
compared to monoculture. [THH]

A field trial showed that the incidence of powdery mildew was minimum on
