Abstract/ Executive Summary:

To find out suitable containers for storing jute seeds, Colletotrichum corchori infected CVL-1 seeds was stored for nine months. Infected seeds were categorized as 0, 5, 10 and 15% infection. After 9 months of storage germination percent was recorded maximum (90%) in tin containers with 0% infected seeds and minimum germination (43%) in gunny bag with 15% infection.

Keywords: Storage, Containers, Reduce, Infestation, Seed borne, Pathogen

Location: Central station, Dhaka

Start Date: 15-11-2004

End Date: 15-07-2005

Program Area: Pest Management

Commodity: Jute

Objectives:

1.To detect the rate of incidence of the seed borne pathogen

2.To find out suitable containers for reducing infestation rate of seed borne pathogen

Methodology:

Infected seeds of CVL-1 were collected from different sources of Bangladesh. Collected seeds were categorized as 0%, 5%, 10%,and 15% infection with Colletotrichum corchori. Since other major pathogen of jute viz. M. phaseolina, and B. theobromae were not available in collected seeds but prevalence of C. corchori were taken as experimental materials. Tin container, gunny bag, earthen pot and glass container were used as storage material.Storage effect of these materials were recorded after 9 months of experiment set up.
