Pepper is a major crop species of the Solanaceae family, largely appreciated for its high nutritional and healthy contribution to human diets. In the Mediterranean basin, the favorable pedoclimatic conditions enhanced the selection of several diversified landraces cultivated pepper (Capsicum annuum), for whom Italy can be considered a main pole of diversification.

There exists a lot of controversy regarding the prevalence of strains in the various parts of the world. In India, however, scant information is available about the prevalence of biovars/races and strains in various parts of the country. Understanding local pathogen genetic diversity is the first step in a successful breeding and integrated disease management programme. One of the purposes of the present investigation on six isolates of R.

Tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill) is one of the most important vegetable crops of the family Solanaceae. Survey for prevalence and severity of late blight of tomato was conducted in three vegetable growing districts of Kashmir valley viz. Anantnag, Baramulla and Budgam. Maximum disease incidence (10.24%), intensity (3.79%) and infected fruits (4.06%) were observed in district Anantnag, followed by district Budgam with 9.67% disease incidence, 3.14% disease intensity and 3.50% infected fruits and the least disease incidence (09.33%), disease intensity (3.04%) and infected fruits (3.

Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) is one of the most important vegetable crop belongs to family Solanaceae. The production quality of tomato affected by array of biotic and abiotic stresses. Of these, biotic factors especially viruses are major constraint in tomato production. Among viruses infecting tomato, Tomato leaf curl virus (ToLCV), Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV), Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV), Tomato mosaic virus (ToMV), and Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) presently known to contribute consistently to yield losses of tomato crop.

The cultivated tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) is economically one of the most important and widely grown plants of the Solanaceae family. Epidemics of Tomato leaf curl virus associated with upsurge of whiteflies (Bemasia tabacci) on tomato crop has been frequently reported which up to 100% yield losses (Shelat, et.al, 2014). In all twenty six samples were collected to see the presence of tomato leaf curl virus (ToLCV).

microsatellite markers Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) is one of the most important economically plants in the family Solanaceae. Information about genetic diversity of any crop is important for successful employment of breeding programme and is of great significance to attain sustainability in crop production. The objective of this study was to evaluate the genetic diversity of 24 genotypes of tomato collected from ICAR-IIVR, Varanasi, India, using 25 simple-sequence repeats (SSRs). A total of 64 alleles were detected at an average of 2.720 alleles per SSR locus.

Tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum L.) is the world’s largest vegetable crop after potato and sweet potato, belongs to family Solanaceae. It was universally treated as ―protective food‖ because of its special nutritive value. Fusarium wilt of tomato is one of the most devastating diseases, caused by Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. lycopersici. It is a soil borne pathogen which causes serious loss in tomato production and attacks plants through roots at all stages of plant growth.

Potato (Solanum tuberosum L., 2n= 4x= 48) is one of the major food crops of the world which can supplement the food needs of any country in a substantial manner. It is a perennial plant of the Solanaceae or nightshade family, commonly grown for its starchy tuber content. Mulching plays a very important role in the potato production. It has numerous advantages, it reduces labour required in cultivation and does not harm the crop.

The number of spores of vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal (VAM) fungi occurring in the rhizospheric soil of 14 crops was investigated using traditional wet-sieving/decanting methods. The aim of the study was to determine the effect of some agronomy species (Gramineae, Leguminosae, Solanaceae, Labiatae, Cruciferae, Umbellifera, and Alliaceae) on VAM spores numbers in the rhizosphere.
