Effect of Border Crops and Insecticides on Management of Whitefly, Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) Transmitted Yellow Mosaic Virus in Soybean

Year: 2017

Type: article

Abstract: The field experiments carried out to study the effect of border crops and insecticides against whitefly transmitted Yellow Mosaic Virus (YMV) in soybean during kharif 2015-16 and 2016-17. The treatment in combination of maize as border crop, seed treatment with thiamethoxam 30FS@5ml/kg seed, foliar application of imidacloprid 17.8 SL @ 500ml/ha at 30-35 DAS and triazophos 40 EC @ 800 ml/ha at 45-50 DAS recorded lowest mean whitefly population (1.02 whiteflies/plant), which resulted in reduced YMV disease incidence (14.63%) and highest grain yield (19.42 q/ha) among treatments in soybean.
