Project profile:

Project title: - “Early Detection Of Chilli Anthracnose by Pathogenicity, Standard Blotting and PCR Method”

Project Guide: - Dr. A. P. Kopulwar (Professor at PIET)

Mr. A. V. Bhirangi (Technical Officer at Ankur Seeds Pvt. Ltd.)

Place: - Plant Pathology and Molecular Biology Unit, R&D Lab Ankur Seeds Pvt. Ltd. Neri, Nagpur.

Details: - This project discuss about the threat of chilli anthracnose. Anthracnose disease is a major problem in India and one of the more significant economic constraints to chilli production worldwide, especially in tropical and subtropical regions. The disease causes both pre- and post-harvest fruit decay. Chilli anthracnose usually develops under high humid conditions when rain occurs after the fruits have started to ripen with reported losses of up to 84%. Economic losses caused by the disease are mainly attributed to lower fruit quality and marketability. Pathogenicity, Standard Blotting & PCR methods were employed for rapid detection of anthracnose on chilli.
