Red rot (Colletotrichum falcatum went)

Eight native strains of Pseudomonas spp. were isolated from rhizosphere of various sugarcane clones on Pseudomonas agar using standard protocols. These strains were characterized for antagonistic traits on red rot pathogen in vitro and Plant growthpromoting (PGP) activities in greenhouse up to 30 days from single node setts in portrays as sett treatment (@109 CFU ml-1 ). The promising isolate was characterized up to species level by PCR amplification of 16S rDNA region using Pseudomonas specific primers. Elite strain was identified as P. putida strain AKP-1.

Red rot disease of sugarcane is caused by Colletotrichum falcatum Went, a disease of major importance in the most of sugarcane growing state of India. Red rot caused a wide range of reduction in juice quality and also it is responsible for degeneration of varieties in sugarcane. The present investigation was under taken at SRI, Pusa, to assess the deterioration in cane juice quality induced by red rot pathogen. The observation clearly revealed that there was an appreciable reduction in the juice quality i.e. Pol, Brix and Purity.
