 ABSTRACT

The present investigation was carried out at Green house of floriculture, N.A.U., Navsari-396450. Out of thirteen varieties screened under greenhouse conditions minimum percent disease intensity was recorded in Kento (7.50), Jaffana (8.00), Venezia (7.67) proved resistant, while Binaka (15.50), Torbin (19.50), were found moderately resistant. Ice queen (34.50), Lion (32.33), Diego (27.17),Fana (35.83), Stanza (23.67) found moderately susceptible and C.F. orange (44.00), Cherany (47.67), C.F. gold (55.17) were found susceptible. Bedi and Singh (1972), Crisan and Szenyei (1987), and Hilal and Kamel (1990) have screened the varieties of ornamental and flowering plant other than gerbera against Alternaria sp. They have indicated the presence of resistance or susceptibility in the various genotypes. Based on the result of varietal screening, it is suggested to grow resistant to moderately resistant varieties in this area to maximize the production.
