Estimation of Yield Loss Caused by Groundnut Ring Mosaic Disease

Abstract

The susceptibility of groundnut plants to ring mosaic virus decreased with increase in age and the plant susceptibility was negatively correlated with yield. Adverse effects on plant height, shoot weight, root nodules, pegs formed, pod weight and kernel weight of groundnut plants infected at 1.2.4.6 and 8 weeks of age were determined.
