Abstract

Patato virus Y infection significantly reduced the chIorophyli content of chilli plants. Application of carbendazim is no! restoring status quo ante, rather it is only slightly increasing the chlorophylls in treated infected as compared to non-treated infected chilli plants. The was infection significantly increased both total protein and nucleic acid contents, while systemic fungicides did not affect total protein and nucleic acid contents.
