Abstract
An experiment was conducted in Uttar Pradesh, India, on 26 entries of Mentha arvensis, 13 of M. piperita, 7 of M. cardiaca [M. gracilis], one of M. citrata M. piperita var. citrata and 3 of M. spicata in 1999 and during 2000 on 19 mixed entries of mint species assumed resistant to sweet potato white fly (Bemisia tabaci). In 1999, it was observed that among the 26 M. arvensis entries, MA-92-194 (29.33 YST) and Kosi (33.33) were significantly superior in resistance to whitefly adults compared to the other entries. Among the 13 entries of M. piperita, MPS-1 (39.67/YST) showed significantly higher resistant potential to sweet potato white fly. However, out of 7 entries of M. cardiaca, on an average MCAS-2 (45.16/YST) and MCAM-19 (49/YST) were highly significant in resistance to white fly over the other entries sampled. Among M. citrata and M. spicata entries, Kiran of M. citrata (68.50 YST) and Arka (81.YST), Neerkalka (93/YST), and MSS-5 (203.66) of M. spicata were highly significant in resisting the population of white fly attack. In 2000, among the 19 promising entries of Mentha cultivars and germplasm lines, MA-B-1 (0.67/YST) of M. arvensis, and MSS-5 (3/YST) of M. spicata possessed significantly high resistance potential to B. tabaci
