Abstract

Late Leaf Spot (LLS) disease is caused by Phaeoisariopsis personata, a devastating disease that significantly affects groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) production worldwide. This research aimed to investigate the disease progress in resistant and susceptible groundnut genotypes under green house conditions with artificial inoculations. The four popularly growing groundnut cultivars in Andhra Pradesh i.e., Kadiri-6 (K6), Dharani, Harithandra and Lepakshi (K-1812) were evaluated in this study. The disease severity scale, percent disease index (PDI), Area under disease progression curve (AUDPC) and the epidemic rate (rate) were estimated by using the linear model. Highest disease severity was observed in K6 (88.19 %) and Dharani (85.19 %) with greater disease progression rate was observed in K6 (0.13) and Dharani (0.12) cultivars. However, the lowest disease progression was observed in Lepakshi (0.04) and Harithandhra (0.08) cultivars. Enhanced resistance to LLS was reported with Harithandhra and Lepakshi cultivars due to slower epidemic rate, longer incubation and latent periods with smaller lesions.
