Abstract:
Linseed (
Linum usitatissimum L.) is an important oil seed crop grown for dual purposes seed and fibre. To study the influence of dates of sowing and disease incidence and severity of
Alternaria blight the year of 2015-16, 2016-17. The field trial was carried out using randomized block design with six treatments at different dates of sowing having three replication combinations at the interval of 10 days using variety EC-544. The observation was recorded the lowest disease incidence found 41.30 % in the treatment (T
6) with the maximum yield of 7.85 q/ha in 2015-16 and the maximum disease incidence in year 2015-16 was found in treatment (T
1) having 70.80% with the lowest yield of 1.65 q/h. In year 2016-17 with the same technical programme of 2015-16, the lowest disease incidence of 43.90% with the maximum yield of 7.35 q/h and the highest disease incidence 86.81 % found in the treatment (T
1) with the minimum yield of 1.35 q/ha.
