Abstract: |
A survey programme was conducted on fingermillet in 2004 to hilly regions of the eastern and . western part of the country to know the situation of millet diseases and to study about them. Some millet growing of Dolakha, Sidhupalchowk, Syanja, Tanahu, Kaski & Nuwakot district were visited and appearance diseases were recorded at randomly selecting Ten plants in each field. Blast (Pyricularia grisea), Cercospora Leaf spot (Cercospora eleusine) and Helminthosporium leaf spot (Helminthosporium spp.) were observed among them Cercospora leaf spot disease was found only at higher altitude. Low severities of major diseases (Blast and CLS) were observed in all districts. Finger blast was observed ·up to resistant reaction in all the surveyed districts. The agronomically superior cultivars should be selected to maintain the genetic purity and seed multiplication programme for next season to distribute the farmers of that area.
