Resistant sources in groundnut germplasm lines against peanut bud necrosis tospovirus disease

Of the 242 groundnut genotypes, tested both in epiphytotic field and laboratory conditions, the genotypes viz., ICGV 90009, ICGV 86699, ICGV 86329, 91177, 91234, ICGV‐94252 and TG 26 were found promising both with low incidence of PBND besides longer incubation periods, DFSA, DLSA and IP 50%. Further, significant positive correlation was found between IP 50% vs DLSA, DFSA and final PBND (%) was negatively correlated with IP 50% and DFSA.
