Centenary of Soil and Air Borne Wheat Karnal Bunt Disease Research: A Review

Karnal bunt (KB) of wheat (<i>Triticum aestivum</i> L.), known as partial bunt has its origin in Karnal, India and is caused by <i>Tilletia indica</i> (Ti). Its incidence had grown drastically since late 1960s from northwestern India to northern India in early 1970s. It is a...
