Epidemiological Insights into Erysiphe polygoni-Induced Powdery Mildew of Blackgram under In-vitro Conditions

V. Vasanthi, P. Kishore Varma, M. Suresh, N. Kamakshi, Ch. Rani, D. Ramesh, J. Vasanthi & B. Pushparajyam · Archives of Current Research International · 2025

Aim: Powdery mildew, incited by Erysiphe polygoni D.C, is a prominent foliar disease of blackgram (Vigna mungo L.) that adversely impacts all developmental stages, culminating in premature defoliation and yield losses reaching up to 70%. The disease initiates as subtle, white pow...
