B. M. V. S. Prasad; S. L. Bhattiprolu; V. M. Kumar; et al. International Journal of Bio-resource and Stress Management 2025. doi:10.23910/1.2025.6507
Other claims from this paper (13)
- Association Maximum and minimum temperatures, evening relative humidity, and rainy days were critical factors for Corynespora leaf spot progression in cotton.
- Intervention effect Five propiconazole sprays gave the lowest cotton disease index, 7.4 PDI.
- Intervention effect Five propiconazole sprays gave the highest cotton yield, 3060 kg ha-1.
- Association Disease control in cotton correlated positively with spray number.
- Association Cotton yield correlated positively with spray number.
- Association Cotton disease index correlated negatively with spray number.
- Association Cotton yield correlated negatively with disease index.
- Association Avoidable cotton yield loss correlated negatively with disease index.
- Association Each additional spray was associated with a 4.89 reduction in cotton disease index, with R2 of 98%.
- Association Each additional spray was associated with a 13.50% increase in cotton disease control, with R2 of 99%.
- Association Each additional spray was associated with cotton yield promotion to 178.80% in pooled analysis, with R2 of 97%.
- Association A 1% increase in cotton disease index was associated with yield reduction to 35.41 times, with R2 of 92%.
- Recommendation The authors recommend timely crop protection to minimize cotton yield losses and achieve potential yields.
