Brown leaf spot disease and fertilizer interaction in irrigated rice growing on different soil types
Tóm tắt
Studies have been undertaken in a 1000 ha area of irrigated rice (Oryzica sativa) at Caroni (1975) Limited to determine the effect of the fertilizer programme on the incidence of important diseases. Over a period of three years higher levels of brown leaf spot (Cochliobolus miyabeanus) on rice varieties Oryzica 1 and Oryzica 5 on three different soil types were associated with increasing levels of leaf P, from a low of 0.149% of dry matter (DM) to a high of 0.396% DM. On the Washington silty clay loam series (Inceptisol) brown leaf spot incidence was lowest when leaf P was between 0.135% and 0.149% of DM. However, disease incidence was higher when leaf P levels fell to 0.133% of DM or rose above 0.149%, under conditions where N was more than adequate. The moderate levels of the disease experienced over the period had no effect on yield, as grain infection was minimal. The results support the conclusion that the incidence of brown leaf spot on irrigated rice at Caroni is influenced by sub-optimal levels paticularly of P. Careful monitoring and managememt of P nutrition is seen as an important part in the overall strategy for controlling the disease.
