Abstract:
Fusarium wilt is a major constraint in successful cultivation of solanaceous crops. The present study was carried out in the Kashmir valley. From different regions samples of different wilted solanaceous crops were collected and were assessed for molecular and morphological variations. The sequences of internal transcribed spacers (ITS) genomic regions of isolates were studied at molecular level and they showed 99% similarity with Foc sequences by basic local alignment search tool (BLAST) analysis. Fusarium oxysporum was found to be a common Fusarium variant in different crops viz; tomato, capsicum, brinjal and chilli in Kashmir region.
