The study found that chemical control using newer molecules of fungicide in susceptible cultivars is safe and effective, while resistant cultivars showed significant resistance to late blight. Resistant cultivar, Kufri Girdhari along with specific fungicidal scheduling were proven to be the best treatments for effective management of late blight and maximizing yield.
Late blight of potato is considered to be the most devastating problem causing severe yield losses in potato worldwide. Among the different management strategies, the use of resistant cultivars is the most viable option, but the non-availability of enough quantity of quality seed materials of resistant cultivars forces the farmers to grow susceptible cultivars with proper fungicide scheduling. Therefore, in the present study, chemical control using fungicide has been attempted with newer molecules in the susceptible cultivar along with a resistant cultivar as a positive control. All the tested fungicides were found safe, and no phytotoxicity was observed with any chemical at the applied rate. In resistant cultivar, no late blight was appeared in both the years, whereas maximum AUDPC was observed in the untreated control (276.3) and minimum (41.7) in mancozeb-cymoxanil + mancozeb based scheduling which was found on par with chlorothalonil-famoxadone + cymoxanil (51.3) and chlorothalonil-ametoctradin + dimethomorph (53.5) based scheduling. Among the treatments, resistant cultivar, Kufri Girdhari followed by chlorothalonil-ametoctradin + dimethomorph and mancozeb-cymoxanil + mancozeb based fungicidal scheduling were proven as the best treatments for both the crop seasons resulting in the highest yield parameters. The disease severity showed a strong negative correlation with the tuber yield of potatoes in both the years. Based on overall observations including BC ratio, it can be concluded that, wherever seed material of resistant cultivar is available farmers should grow the same or else with susceptible cultivars the fungicidal scheduling based on mancozeb-cymoxanil + mancozeb or chlorothalonil-ametoctradin + dimethomorph can be followed to obtain the maximum returns with effective management of late blight at the southern hills of India.
