Abstract

A field experiment on the seasonal incidence of stem fly, Melanagromyza sojae (Zehntner) infesting black gram was carried out in variety GU 1 (Gujarat Urd 1) during kharif 2017 and 2021 at Entomology farm, B. A. College of Agriculture, AAU, Anand. Infestation of M. sojaewas observed from 1^st WAS i.e., 34^th SMW. Later on, infestation increased gradually and its highest infestation was observed during the 39^th SMW i.e., 68.33 and 73.33% of kharif, 2017 and 2021, respectively. Stem fly infestation exhibited a highly significant positive association (r = 0.519** and 0.655**, respectively) with bright sunshine hours (BSS) and maximum temperature (MaxT), respectively. Abiotic factors viz., rainfall (RF) exhibited a significant negative association (-0.458*), while evaporation (EP) showed a significant positive association (0.466*).
