ABSTRACT

A field experiment was initiated to know the resistant sources for management of soybean stem fly Melanagromyza sojae (Zehnter) at Research and Development Unit, Ugar Khurd, Belagavi (Karnataka-India) during Kharif 2017 and 2018. Twenty-two soybean genotypes obtained from All India co-ordinated Research Project on Soybean, Indore and AICRP on soybean, University of Agricultural Sciences, Dharwad centre were evaluated in the field to find out the genotypes resistant to the stem fly. The pooled results of two year experimentation revealed that, among the genotypes evaluated, DSb 23 was found to be highly resistant against stem fly in seedling stage during both years. Irrespective of the crop stages, DSb 23, DSb 1, DSb 12, DSb 15 and DSb 24 are categorized as resistant genotypes against stem fly. Moderately resistant genotypes include, DSb 32, DSb 25, DSb 28-3, DSb 33, DSb 34 and DSb 19. Studies on morphological characters revealed a significant negative correlation between stem fly infestation and stem thickness (r=-0.89); while a significant positive correlation was observed while considering internodal length(r=0.90).
