Abstract

Target leaf spot of sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench) caused by Bipolaris sorghicola (Lefebvre and Sherwin) Alcorn has been reported to be severe in different humid parts of the world (2), though its prevalence varies in different areas and over time. It has been reported to cause substantial damage on Johnson grass (Sorghum halepens) also, and considered as its potential mycoherbicide (1,10). In India, target leaf spot on grain sorghum was first reported by Munjal and Kapoor (5), who considered it to be quite severe. But still there is limited information about the actual magnitude of occurrence of target...
