Abstract

Coriander is an important seed spice crop of this region grown for leaf as well as seed purpose. Cultivation of this crop suffers from major yield losses by stem gall disease. The disease symptoms appear in the form of small protuberance of stem and as hypertrophied seeds. Management of disease is important in view of its severity, yield losses and quality of seeds. The objective of present article is providing an overview about different germplasm screened, management strategies used with chemicals fungicide and bio-agents by many researchers for stem gall disease of coriander.
